THIS SATURDAY NIGHT 12th MARCH – SHARE THIS AROUND, SPREAD THE WORD – THE BOB WHITE CUP FOR SENIOR & JUNIOR SIDECARS!
This Saturday night will see the Speedway Riders Association pay tribute to a giant of the sport here in South Australia, and around Australia as well, with the running of the 2022 Bob White Cup at their brilliant Gillman venue. Once again a double event with the Cup on offer for both, junior and senior sidecars, the event has attracted a high quality field, and not least due to the Australian Senior Sidecar Championship fast approaching at the same venue – so this will be one of the last chances to cut some laps before it’s ‘serious time’!
Fantastic also to see 6 junior sidecars entered – and a second all-girl team, with Amelia Silvy & Tayla Lucas joining the Victorian team of Chloe Ackerley & Eva Whitworth – so good to see, especially with a few ‘2nd generation’ names in the field, like Aussie Junior Champ Neische, and Headland & Gates!
So, chuck the deck chair in the boot, mark your spot on Graham Baker Hill, or in the Marker Brothers Grandstand and get a great feed from Gillman’s awesome canteen – and then sit back and watch some awesome 3 wheeled action! Go on, you know you wanna!
