HOPEFULLY this one will be ready tonight, if not, Iโ€™ll finish it on the plane to Riga and get it out tomorrow evening! But yes, I am teaching myself how to build, maintain, upgrade and ride a speedway bike! I donโ€™t have a clue what Iโ€™m doing! What could possibly go wrong? ๐Ÿ™†๐Ÿผโ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿ˜…

Just FaceTimed Alice from the plane, honestly the clearest FaceTime signal Iโ€™ve ever hadโ€ฆ 30,000 feet in the sky! Starlink is the future!

As soon as I put the first post up about the project, I have been swarmed with incredibly amazing people offering to help! Truthfully, I thought it may go that way. My goal is to encourage others to do the same, get a cheap bike and teach themselves how to maintain it ๐Ÿ˜„

Had the loveliest night in Riga Itโ€™s so nice to not have to leave the hotel and have so many people around who want to talk speedway Canโ€™t wait for the SGP2 tomorrow, in possibly the best city on the calendar Thank you to everybody who I had the privilege to spend it with ๐Ÿซถ๐Ÿป

I just cannot believe how fortunate I am to have been taken under the wing of an organisation like the FIM Speedway Grand Prix Every person in this team is just so supportive and encouraging, it truly is an honour to be a part of it! Iโ€™ll never forget these days, memories for a lifetime ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿผ

Amazing weekend once again in Riga! I LOVE coming to this place. Thank you and congratulations to the team here at the Bikernieki Stadium! Every speedway fan must have a special place in their heart for Lebedevs! What a man, what a father and what a rider! Paldies Latvia ๐Ÿซถ๐Ÿป

Back from Riga, now time to start to rebuild my speedway bike for the YouTube channel ๐Ÿ˜… Oh by the way, I have no mechanical experience! All I need is a can of WD40 and a hammer right? First video coming early this week!

Same my friend! I have no clue, the first video will show how much I know about a speedway bike ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ It will be a fun journey ๐Ÿ˜

Itโ€™s been nearly two months since my last upload, but my first speedway bike video will be uploaded at 5pm on my YouTube channel! I donโ€™t have a clue what Iโ€™m doing! Can I start it? Will it start? What if it doesnโ€™t run? Iโ€™ve had a lot of fun putting this one together!

Over 25 riders and mechanics have been in touch in the first 2 hours! This is what I love about speedway, filter out the wallys and it really is a MEGA helpful community! Thank you all for getting in touch, this journey is going to be great fun!

1/2: Absolutely overwhelmed with the enormous response to the video! Every inbox I have has exploded with people offering to help, thank you all so much! I think the next step which I can probably figure out myself is to replace the rear guard, push bar, spoiler and front guard

2/2: So firstly, does anybody have a set of the following kicking about in their workshop getting in the way they want to get rid of? โ€ข Black Rear Mudguard โ€ข Black Front Mudguard โ€ข Black 19โ€ Spoiler โ€ข Modern Push Bar If nobody has these for sale, where can I get it all? ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿผ

You know how much of a newbie I am? Is there anywhere I can go and pick up a can of methanol? Bit tougher than pulling up to the shell and getting a can of unleaded ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

Does anybody have a spare engine bung I can blag? Iโ€™m going to brave taking the carb off to take a closer look, but Iโ€™ve been told multiple times to make sure the engine is bunged up so nothing drops down into the engine. If anybody has one getting in the way, let me know ๐Ÿ˜„
