An obvious solution to the UK rider shortage... Well, it is in keeping with so many other great ideas....

I sort of understand riders wanting bigger and bigger deals because unfortunately most come into the sport with the mentality of it’s my living and I don’t blame them for that, if anyone is at fault it’s the sport feeding that illusion to them but for me it wasn’t my living it was my dream and I lived it 

I loved it a Berwick, the fans made me feel like it was my home and it felt like a big family, it was 550mile round trip for home meetings but worth every mile and days I’ll never forget 

It was a massive issue under Ian Jordan at Eastbourne, I spoke with Chris Louis and he said Jordan was paying Richard Lawson more than he was at Ipswich, not that Jordan paid RL in full at the end..

You certainly gave 100% for Berwick,that’s all most fans wanted in them days.Nowadays 1 bad meeting and they want changes.

It is a generational thing but doesn’t make your observations wrong
