Way back in 1995 - Sidecar speedway racing at the famous Sydney Showground - those were the days !

Totally unneccessary new gimmick this SGP qualifying. We are not Formula 1. Who cares about riding numbers?

MONSON AND SUMMERHAYES WIN DRAMATIC SIDECAR WORLD CUP Gillman Spedway

Miesiac rode in Argentina this winter. Seems as if it has helped him stay race fit.

Just found out that Victorian Warren Monson is the new Sidecar Speedway World Cup Champion 2019

Does anyone know the results of today's Sidecar World Final ?

"Sportowy Fakty" claims 14,500 at Zielona v Torun and 16,000 at Czestochowa vs Gorzow Massive crowds anyway for these opening couple of league meeting.

Just like Josef Angermüller of Reading, most of the 1970s/80s Germans in the British League are pretty much forgotten now, like Carsten Pelzmann of Middlesbro, Peter Würterle of Reading, Georg Hack of Ipswich, Hans Wassermann of Reading, or Gerd Uhlenbrock of Coventry, and probably some others whom I have forgotten about.

I'd rather say it was a typical Pawlicki fall, like he has performed many times. Certainly nothing to justify Darcy Ward's twitter comment, what's wrong with him? There nothing dirty about Nicki's riding in this race.

Zielona Gora v Leszno March 21, 2019 Heat 13 (Starts at 1:54.00) Pedersen (blue) vs Pawlicki (yellow)

ö=oe (in the German Alphabet) His name in German is Schröck, which can alternatively be wirtten as Schroeck (which is accepted as correct spelling), or You can just leave the two dots out and then Your get the name as Schrock (which is not quite the correct spelling). Same as with Michael Härtel, which in English should be written as Haertel, but is often written Hartel. Egon Müller, should actually always been Egon Mueller in (English), but is usually referred to as Egon Muller.

Is there a Swedish Cup competition at all? Don't think so!

Here is a picture of a South Africa speedway team touring Poland in 1994 The rider in the middle of the front row is Attila Stefani (alias Mark Frost). Next to him (the second from the left) is his brother Laszlo Stefani.

alias Mark Frost, who really was a Hungarian in disguise. What was his real name? Was it Attila Stefani, or Laszlo Stefani?

The Story of Singapore Speedway was published in "the Speedway Researcher" a few years ago. Here is the online link http://www.speedwayresearcher.org.uk/10.4.pdf

I seem to remember that a rider from Switzerland, known as "the Crazy Butcher from Zurich", the one and only Jessy Inauen, rode at Exeter in the late 80's or early 90's. Not sure though if he rode for the Falcons in league speedway, or if he only rode there in an open individual meeting ?

Reynolds, who was from Western Australia, did not have much success as a speedway promoter. His Singapure Speedway venture did not last long as he ran out of money after a couple of months in May/June of 1930. It was much the same story when, together with Max Grosskreutz, he re-opened the Hamburg DT in the spring of 1933.

Bergé has acted like a "spoilt brat" in long-track racing, too, when he was beaten by Smolinki for the world title last year. He is a very good rider, but at times he's not easy to get on with.
