Dream Team : Roger Heydon

I've been following speedway since I was months old. The whole family used to cycle to coventry (9 miles) every saturday to watch. This is my dream team.

Ole Olsen
First captain I ever knew - and no one could beat him around coventry much.

Tommy Knudsen
My favourite rider of all time. Should of been World Champion.

Bruce Penhall
Always felt he could make a difference for the away team (Cradley boo!!)

Hans Nielsen
Best rider around in the late 80's early 90's. Just one of the all time best.

Roman Matousek
Just enjoyed watching him never knowing what he was going to do next.

Eric Gundersen
Same as Pruce Penhall really.

Tony Rickardsson
Best rider around now and absolutely world class.

Can I have eight?

Greg Hancock
Again a great rider for Coventry - just wish they would get him back.
