Jye Etheridge has safely arrived in the UK for his first assault on British Speedway and confirms that he can't wait to get on the track.

Jye flew into Heathrow early on Sunday morning and was met by his brother Shannon, who is already a UK resident and they made their way up the country to Leicester where Shannon lives. He works for Triumph Motorcycles and Jye was pleased to be pictured outside his brother's workplace.

Although it is still more than a month until Jye will get some track action at Armadale he can't wait to get a feel for the UK tracks. He said, "I've allowed myself plenty of time to get organised for the start of the season but I'll take every opportunity going to get on other tracks before getting my chance at Armadale. I'm itching to get on a bike and can't wait to ride over here."
