Norman Venson raised a staggering A$235 in between todays junior and senior finals by holding a Dutch auction all in aid of the EuroVets Orchid cancer appeal The highest bid secured an Orchids t-shirt signed by all the EuroVets Down Under plus todays newly crowned world champions. A great achievement Norman! JACOB MOVING UP THE LADDER posted 21 November 2013 Young Jacob Soper is having the tour of a lifetime in Adelaide, reaping the benefits of a year's hard work on and off the track. With great support from the Newport club, sponsors and in particular Stuart Raven and Tony Bennett, Jacob had gone through a tough training regime on the track and in the gym prior to the Oz.
After comfortably qualifying for the junior World individual finals earlier this week, he also qualified for the senior Individuals too as one of the two highest non-qualifiers. In both competitions, he is delighted to have progressed further than a number of the older riders, showing them that he is an upcoming force to be reckoned with.
Andrew Wilkies hopes of reaching the World individual final were smashed, literally, after the Australian rider broke his leg in a skateboard fall earlier in the week.

SUN GOD posted 14 November 2013
The GB coach had to endure being buried in the sand, hit by flying volleyballs and constant ribbing from the rest of camp.
He does not use any kind of factor cream. Instead prefers to be covered virgin olive oil (dont try this at home kids!). It has been said he would make the perfect barbecue.
WOMEN'S PIN-UP posted 14 November 2013
Findon very kindly agreed to put on a scratch test between the GB campsite and an Australian select team mainly made up of senior riders. It proved a great workout for all those looking for a bit extra racing before the individuals start - so big thank you to the guys at Findon for agreeing to race the guys.
Murraylands have agreed to race the guys next Sunday and both LeFevere and Salisbury are looking to squeeze extra matches in.
MURPHY ON THE MOVE posted 10 November 2013
Poor old Dave Murphy had a bad day at LeFevre on Friday night when he moved at the tapes, not once but twice, including actually breaking them in his last ride. Fortunately he was allowed to continue at the back of the grid.
VIDEO REPLAYS posted 10 November 2013
Ace video cameraman Steve Copping is doing a sterling job recording and editing all the action Down Under. No doubt his DVDs will be in great demand when the tourists arrive home.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY LEYTON posted 10 November 2013
Leyton Glover was observed at Findon earlier today celebrating his 19th birthday but under the watchful eyes of senior members of the Poole club management bearing in mind his World senior individual qualifying round on Monday. Best of luck tomorrow!
After a long day of ferrying riders around and making sure all the juniors got to the right tracks for their qualifying rounds, GB womens captain Vicky Brown finally returned to the campsite tired and exhausted - and parked outside the wrong cabin!
