iris123 21,076 Posted February 8, 2004 I know its not strictly in this thread but isn`t P.O.Serenius the ex Ice Speedway world champ getting on a bit and still challenging for top honours? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
norbold 7,163 Posted February 8, 2004 If we're talking about the oldest ever just to get on a bike and ride I don't think Geoff Pymar's 88 will be beaten. Right......i've got about 15 years before I can attempt that record ...... if I try I'll invite you along Norman.... then perhaps you could immortalise me in a book. LOL..... It's a date. I'll be there. Just let me know when and where... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
norbold 7,163 Posted February 9, 2004 In the latest issue of the Vintage Speedway Magazine, Eric Linden has asked the same question. He says, "I'm wondering about Phil Bishop, Oliver Hart and Joe Abbott". I'll have to follow those up now! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bryn 413 Posted February 9, 2004 Currently being down here in Oz, I can't refer to any of my records but Jack Vallis (ex_Southampton, now in his 70's I believe) raced in second half veteran challenge matches / second halves at Coventry etc right up to the end of last year when he got injured in a crash on the IOW! Another that springs to mind is Ted Ede who rode for West Ham circa 1966 who still rides regularly in the Southern Track Riders Association "Over 40s" class.
