Hi Schumi, Ronnie Genz rode for Oxford every year between 1954 and 1964. He had a further spell at Cowley between 1968 and 1971 (although he missed a complete season through injury, can't remember through memory if it was 1969 or 1970).

In any case, he rode for Oxford in 14 seasons, a club record.

I knew you'd be able to help. Thanks, genghis.

Okay, next question - which clubs did the following riders ride for in July 2005 (when they appeared in the British Final) please?

Ben Barker, David McAllan, Andrew Moore.

I'm sure David was riding for the Monarchs when he qualified for the British Final . And i think Andrew Moore was a Sheffield rider then .

Thanks, paulco. Got all of them now.

I trust you've got Ben Barker as Oxford then Schumi. He and Jamie Courtney were the track reserves and therefore were representatives of the staging club, being members of Oxford's victorous CL side.

Personally, I think Moore was an Eastbourne rider at the time.

You're probably right , when you get to my age the seasons tend to blend into each other .

You're just a young whippersnapper.

I know this is a long shot, but does anyone have the time for the race-off between Barry Briggs and Peter Craven in heat 21 of the second round (at Southampton) of the 1963 British Final please?

In that case, am I a baby, or indeed a foetus?

With any luck Genghis will be getting some of his old Speedway Stars out soon, so maybe, just maybe he may be able to look that one up for you.

Still looking for these times if anyone can help, please?

In the 1996 GPs, did Marvyn Cox ride as a Brit or a German?

Schumi, I believe Cocker was a Brit that year. He was riding full-time for Oxford, so I think he changed his nationality back to British.

Wasn't he German circa 1993/4?

And was the late Simon Wigg British or Dutch in 1997?
