Rider insurance (or lack thereof)
phillwhitewasmad replied to Dave_minall's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
We received an email regarding an uplift in the cost of our licence which we queried and were told it was as the emailed stated for insurance purposes the uplift was duly paid. previously he had ridden on a pounds for points contract which included insurance no visible deductions were made from his wage the personal cover was assumed to be in the contract but we felt this had been transferred to the ACU with the uplift on the cost of licence dont know about previous coverage as we never claimed and the coverage taken covers his losses as a scaffolder not as a speedway rider as scaffolding is his primary source of income . Speedway is a paid hobby at his level covering its cost with the aid of our wonderful sponsors. i don't mind telling people what I know from our point of view but everyone has different circumstances and our experience could be a different one too others -

We informed the insurance company that Luke races a speedway bike . The insurance we have covers his loss of earnings from his actual job as a scaffolder which he does everyday except for the day he is racing or if he has a busy schedule when bikes need to be prepped. Not sure if the cover would be the same if speedway was the only source of income -
Maybe they are keeping it quiet because they don't want prospective patrons to type speedway into google and end up here reading all the negativity. Good things come to those that wait

Sadly just had to put the latest person on ignore . I don't know or care if it was the same person but it was similar drivel as the other person please don't quote his posts as it means I can still read his -

I put the first idiot on block as it was tedious and is good since people stopped quoting him. Haven't got any issues at moment with other but if I do they will go on block -

Speedway riders are mercenaries it's all about what they earn . Winning is nice but getting paid is better . In a sport we're winning a title means nothing and there no financial reward you get the best deal you can -
Wondering why there no enthusiasm to build a purpose built track for cars and bikes at Bradford. Always seems to be no objection to the noise and would get away from the bulls who's recent financial history is poor they are in and out of odsal more than a guest at a speedway meeting

Is the anomaly due to not competing in enough meetings for average to take effect.

Really don't see what the problem is with this the reduction however it was worked out has allowed us to sign Simon lambert not Robert lambert with what was left. According to most forum members we are going to be so far adrift in the runnings it seems a debate for debates sake. -

Yes must agree totally different in the first case they just altered the rules to allow a rider in . Where as in this case they applied a rule voted on at the agm by all promoters alleged -

Think they used the same equation that they used to get Max Perry into your Ndl team a few years ago . Don't seem to remember a great debate on that -

I use ignore on him but people keep quoting his posts so you see his inane ramblings. Personally think he adds nothing to the debates -

Agree totally that there is no interest from the club authorities . But to the riders selected it's huge riding against the best there is only makes you better.
