  7. Apologies for delayed reply, when I mentioned Fred Tuck I'd forgotten about Frank, shame on me, especially as he top scored for Swindon '52. I bought this jacket from W. Clarke of Knowle so it's probably Frank's. His son Richard had rides for Swindon, Milton Keynes and Weymouth '77 '78.
  8. I've got an ancient Bristol Bulldogs race jacket with F on the back, could it be Fred Tuck?
  9. H J Pugh auctions Ledbury once again includes speedway and grasstrack bikes and parts in the motorcycle sale on the 19 and 20 November.

    Your best speedway year

    I first went to Cradley in '64, age 14, sidekick to a novice rider, didn't get a pork sandwich but got stuck into the Stingo in the bar after the meeting. Have to say we loved going up there and found it real warm and friendly and always had a good time.

    Corona virus

    Apologies for misleading people, I was alluding to resizing and posting photos ("if anyone can do it") definitely not riding speedway, something I would never joke about. However I have had a go and your right, I am tall, here's a Mick Kilby pic.of me at the Mike Broadbank training track '67.

    Corona virus

    Not me, it's a modern pic from the U.S.A. rider unknown. A 22" rear wheel it is for sure, which were used there long after they were banned here, when Martin Ashby first rode over there they were still in use then.

    Corona virus

    If I can do it, anyone can.

    Split Waterman RIP

    It might help if adults desisted the veneration of criminals such as Split, surely a bad example for any young people watching.
