Dan Bewley is on the road to recovery after his horror crash at Newcastle on Sunday evening.

His crash, in heat 11 of our match against the Diamonds, eventually brought a halt to the meeting. After sometime flat out on the track Dan eventually got to his feet and although his Dad wanted him to walk back to the pits Dan was more sensible and took an ambulance ride back.

After further examination in the pits it was decided that a night in the local hospital for observation would be a good idea. In fact he spent two days in hospital but was released on Tuesday afternoon and is now back home in Cumbria.

The new concussion rules mean that he must miss Friday's match at Armadale but he does expect to be back the following Friday.

Our double header against Redcar and Plymouth on Friday will see Newcastle's Ludvig Lindgren take the place of Sam Masters who is in Sweden for the Grand Prix Challenge.
