Where the rider or riders come from I am not sure, the situation with Garcia needs addressing though as there is no sign he is going to get the green light to fly over here. Expand Another Argentinian, Carlos Eber Ampugnani, apparently flew in a week ago & raced in the World U21 Qualifier at Gustrow yesterday.

Just now our restrictions don't but as I`ve posted the Garcia situation needs sorting. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

screm Posted June 14, 2021 Report Share Posted June 14, 2021 So current Covid restrictions are to stay in place for another, probably to the surprise of nobody. I wonder how many teams from the Championship or Premiership will be looking to put their season on hold until the middle of July. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Certainly won’t go down well with a couple of Teams ( can’t really blame them).Berwick seem to be holding up crowd wise,but who knows the overall picture.If teams don’t want to run during this next phase of lockdown it will cause problems.

crescent girl Posted June 15, 2021 Report Share Posted June 15, 2021 (edited) This Saturday has Berwick Bullets taking centre stage in their first stand-alone match before spectators. Hopefully the Berwick (and Newcastle) public will support the meeting -- Bullets are top of the table, but Gems are unbeaten home or away, so it should be an interesting encounter, with the added interest of a sprinkling of local-derby spice. The usual e-tickets are on sale -- £10 across the board -- from the usual site: https://www.berwickspeedway.com/tickets/ Edited June 15, 2021 by crescent girl typo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck to the lad that he has made to progress in the sport. He has now turned his back on a level where he was averaging nearly 11.4(scoring 13-15 points per meeting) earning maybe £350-£400 as heat leader to move to a level where he might score 2-3 points earning £150. It just shows, for some riders, it is not about the pay day but a willingness to progress to another level. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
