speedibee 3,091 Posted October 20, 2010 (edited) Most people who do a physically demanding sport retire early. Tell that to 99.9999999% of speedway riders Edited October 20, 2010 by speedibee Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BWitcher 12,453 Posted October 20, 2010 I think he can enjoy his retirement as well . I wish I could have retired at 39. so do most people I should think He isn't retiring from work, he is retiring as a professional speedway rider. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
junior fan 132 Posted October 20, 2010 (edited) Leigh Adams is loyal to ££££££££££££££ Yeah and where do you think a lot of it goes. Always has imaculate equipment and is a total professional. And what does he earn for putting his neck on the line when you compare it to those poncy footballers. Junior Edited October 20, 2010 by junior fan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Junior lorry drivers put their neck on the line every time they get behind the wheel, thats their choice ,many of them own their own trucks and keep those Immaculate , so they get to retire at 39 do they?

Lorry drivers do not put their neck on the line every time they go out,thats like saying i put my neck on the line every time i drive to work.If they drive on the ragged edge like speedway riders do then they are not driving as safely as they should be.

dirt 0 Posted October 20, 2010 (edited) Speedibee, Sauuuce with yer' chip-ee? Adams rode for nothing in Australia for 10 times crowned National Champion. Risking injury and sacrificing his W.C. prospects in the process. No his sponsors didnt give him a free ride! Still waiting for you reply of what Sullivan rides for or is loyal to???

Steve0 5,517 Posted October 20, 2010 I liked Tai anyway but he went up in my estimation of him when he did his "naked" laps with Shane Parker - what a laugh- and in the middle of October! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
