Guest Posted August 20, 2019 (edited) I am in regular contact with former rider Dave Gifford (New Zealand). Consequently I thought his recollections of speedway days gone by would be of interest. http://www.defunctspeedway.co.uk/Dave Gifford Page.htm Edited August 21, 2019 by Guest Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FAST GATER 852 Posted September 2, 2019 (edited) Remember him" blowing his top" with Gerry Smitherman who was riding at number 2 (GTS Products) at the Port in the mid 70's ten mins later they shook hands and wtched the next race together. A hard but fair rider from my recollections of him , he had a Mini Clubman estate with the bike in the back and the doors held shut with a bungy strap.Happy days no fancy van and an army of pit crew for him , I think it may well have been right at the end of his career .

Lefty 1,259 Posted September 2, 2019 And there was wallpaper stuck on the inside of the doors! #62 was a legend at Wolves... especially when he beat Mauger (and Olsen) at Exeter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
