The Americans are noted in speedway for sticking together, and there will be a fair contingent lining up for Ryan Fisher at his Flyin Tonight event at Armadale on June 3rd.

Workington’s Ricky Wells is one of the track specialists and he is coming to support his World Cup colleague. He says "We have always got on well since I first came over in 2009. My first year was pretty difficult and Fish was one of the only people to help me through the tough times!"

In addition to the already announced Billy Janniro, former Edinburgh rider Aaron Fox and former Glasgow no. 1 Charles “Dukie” Ermolenko will be coming over to ride, the latter coming to Armadale for the first time. Fox of course was part of the 2014 Monarchs, one of the most successful Premier League teams ever, and it had been hoped that he would continue his UK career.

He’s sure of a big welcome back as is the ‘other’ Ermolenko.

Riders announced so far: Ricky Wells, Justin Sedgmen, Billy Janniro, Aaron Fox, Thomas H Jonasson, Andrew Tully, William Lawson, Derek Sneddon, Dukie Ermolenko.
