Is It Finally Time For One League?
gjcone44 replied to TheSmiler's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
what ever they do its going to be 2 steps back before they can go forward. -
thats what I'm talking about, i did for 8 yrs always had 2nd hand equipment, used to buy my 2nd hand tyre's of Collins and Morton when was at belle vue., 1st time i ever had a new set of leathers , was my last year at Boston, when they closed down , couple of years before that was riding for Barrow when they closed down, during my time broke my arm both my wrists, and bust my knee ( which now I'm waiting for a new one š, ) also knocked unconscious twice. i didn't start riding a bike till 18, 1st bike i rode was a jap, in fact i think i was probably one of the last people to ride a jap in a proper 2nd, half at Castleford, that place also closed down while i was there. i rode where i could when i could,, I'm guessing i probably had as much track time in 8yrs as you did in 2yrs, but i gave it my best with the money i had. i would call that some kind of love for the sport. its probably because people like us not being around today that the sport is suffering.

i do fully understand that, i used to ride myself, but never made any money. and back in the day for every 20 of me probably only 5 made a living out of it.and when i mean a living they would still need a job in the winter. those in Doyles position probably 200 + full time . my point was he's near end of his career, and he might last longer with not as many meetings. but still make enough money, we all know your only a split second from serious injury. i suppose its all about the odds. and let me tell you you have to love it more when you dont make any money, and still do it.
