They say good things come in Threes......today has been my favourite day in my Speedway life for a long long time. As luck would have it, I just happened to be in the same place as 2 gentlemen who I have such admiration for, who I have hoped to bump into again for many years. 1 of the guys in this picture....it's been 12 years and 1 month since we last shared a pint and a chat together............ so the 3 things....
1 - I won the 50/50 raffle at Berwick Speedway tonight, and was able to donate the winnings instantly to The Speedway Riders Benevolent Fund.
2 - Brady Kurtz won another Speedway GP, making the World Championship very much within his reach - imagine that, if he goes all the way, a senior Speedway Individual World Champion stood on the podium in a S.F.Racewear suit.
3 - The absolute best bit by a country mile. Having a natter, and a pint with Dave and Ricky Ashworth. I felt so happy and relieved to finally see them both. For a short while tonight I was in the company of 2 of the finest men I have the pleasure to know through this sport - and my soul felt better in their presence.
