How many titles could he have won I wonder.

Very encouraging.

Stop it Norbold and WK...I just had an accident laughing

I remember Bronco...both the loo paper and the Cowboy (Ty Hardin) who apparently was 1st. choice for "A Fistful of Dollars"

No...my original post related to any rider from any era, hence Bluey Wilkinson. Today's post refers to riders I personally saw...Bluey having died 8 years before I was born. Mind you Iris, the senior moments are becoming more frequent

Of all the riders I saw in 25 years of attending speedway, picking 1 is impossible. I would have to choose between Lofqvist, Harrfeldt, Carter, Briggs, Nordin etc. etc....the list is endless.

It's hard to believe my one and only visit to the home of the Archers was nearly 50 years ago. Old age does not creep up I have found...it b****y well races!.

Did he not play Robin Hood?.

Lewis ROSE Kurt PALMer Harley HorWOOD Shane HAZELden Tobias BUScH Aaron FOXglove Oliver GREEN WOOD

I swear by the Almighty Bandits etc. etc.

10p. on KK for me.

Christer around West Ham was an absolute joy.

I understand Emil is competing in the Rory Schlein Invitational at Kings Lynn. This should guarantee a sell-out crowd...one would think.

As an impoverished pensioner with no transport and 50 miles from the nearest track, I don't get to watch speedway. BUT...if I could I would get to Berwick. The team looks good, the stadium and track look good and I reckon the racing will be good. Can I be an honoury (?) supporter?.

Clever clogs

And 2 of them Hammers...nice one Split

Unforgivable for this old 'Ammer...I forgot he died in 1940. oops!.

Oh dear! I seem to have made a b***s up

That is what I meant...sorry if my post was unclear.

Have I had a senior moment?.

My mistake...was not a Showbiz 11 but a Doug Insole 11. I think c. 1969. I can't remember which charity it was for or who took part...I recall Stan Stevens playing.

Aberdeen (An)Gus Kuhn?.

I organised a charity match in the late 60's between the Speedway Riders 11 and a Showbiz 11. I can't remember where it was held but I think either Wanstead or Leytonstone. Memories have faded but I recall The Speedway side losing heavily and playing the 2nd. half with 12 men!.

And I thought I was scraping the barrel

This thread has veered wildly off course. It's a while since anyone commented on Greg Hancock!.
