If you have a brilliant season in the Championship your looking at 17 home meetings. 8 League 4 BSN includes Semi& Final, KO Cup 3, Playoffs 2. So Berwick could open May 2nd and have 25 Saturdays to race 17 meetings. It would be 27 but obviously i have taken Glasgow GP Round and British GP into account

Had had to leave the UK because he couldn't afford to ride in one league.

Is he any good

I think it’s a bit of confusion with the name, they have the same first name 

Personally don't think there are any minor Fim events they are all major in each individual age category. 

Yes other riders and teams will be affected. Think a lot of people/fans don't realise how many of these major and minor FIM meetings affect British speedway, and at a cost to said riders and family to travel
