norbold 7,116 Posted September 26, 2018 Tomorrow afternoon I am being interviewed by Wycombe Radio about the history of Wembley Speedway. As well as a starightforwrad history of the track and its star riders, they have asked if I can include one or two "amusing anecdotes". Not being so sure about this, I thought I'd ask here if anyone had anything amusing to say about Wembley. I'm sure there must be something I can say about the exploits of Lionel Van Praag, Split Waterman or Bruce Abernethy, three larger than life characters. Can anyone help with them or anything else? Thank you. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
