Adam Roynon

Recommended Posts

Anybody know what Adam's plans are, if any, are for 2020. Is he fit, intending to ride somewhere or part retired. Thought someone might have snapped him up earlier and wondered why not.

I agree, really nice lad and had more than his fair share of bad injuries.

I recall his brief spell with Sheffield when he won loads of credit for his sheer guts and can-do attitude. Considering his seemingly endless run of bad luck I'd like to see him having some part to play in the sport. If he's fit and willing to go, someone should give him a place. If nothing else, he could have a role in team management. One of speedway's unsung heroes in my book.

Would also depend on his average and reduction given. 

8% x 2 years? 5.12-16% 4.3 -2.5% 4.19? @NeilWatson should be able to clarify?

Is the conversion not 1.6 for 2020?

Yes it is - my extract is from the latest (2019) regulations from www.scbgb.co.uk

There is a time when a rider should retire gracefully.... Adam has well past that point... apart from perhaps the old hand in the NL trophy in order to pass on his experience to the young guns
