JAIMON Lidsey expressed his delight at a return to the National Speedway Stadium, and is targeting further improvement after adding over 2 points to his 2023 starting average.<\/p>\n

He said: \u201cIt was great to be back racing for Belle Vue. It had been a long time coming, as I was down to be racing back in 2020but then Covid put paid to those plans. <\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cIt was always going to take some time to get going after being away for nearly four years but once I found my feet I felt good, everything worked well, and my average shot right up. <\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cAlthough we didn\u2019t make the final this year, we had a fantastic season. We were the most consistent performers and we finished top of the Premiership as a result. <\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cThe team dynamic was amazing and the supporters were so welcoming, and I\u2019m looking forward to another fantastic year.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

With the news of the closure of Wolverhampton and Peterborough, two new clubs have stepped into the top flight fray in the form of Birmingham and Oxford.<\/p>\n

Two tracks that the 2016 World U-21 Champion has never seen, let alone ridden before, Lidsey is excited to see what new challenges the league newcomers will bring.<\/p>\n

He said: \u201cIt was a massive blow to the sport to lose Wolves and Peterborough, but it\u2019s great to see two clubs come into the Premiership to keep it at seven teams. <\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve never ridder either Birmingham or Oxford but I\u2019m looking forward to going there. It\u2019s a new experience for me and more opportunities to learn and grow. <\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cThat\u2019s something that I wanted to really focus on this year, and having those changes of environment I feel will keep me sharp which is one of the reasons I\u2019ve switched teams in Poland. <\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cI had a mazing few years with Leszno but I just got to the stage where I needed that change, that new challenge and I feel Grudziadz will give me that. <\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s one of those tracks that not a lot of riders like and if I can get myself dialled in it\u2019ll hopefully make me a better rider, and in turn pay dividends for me at Belle Vue as well.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

While also enjoying quality time with his young family over the festive period, Lidsey wasn\u2019t waiting around to jump back on a bike in his native Australia.<\/p>\n

The 24-year-old put himself down for a number of post-Christmas meetings before preparing to head out on the road for the 2024 Australian Solo Championships.<\/p>\n

He completed his campaign fourth overall in the standings, after a consistently strong performance, and it was enough to earn him a place in the 2024 Speedway Grand Prix Qualifiers.<\/p>\n

2024 Season Tickets applications are now available online at BELLEVUE-SPEEDWAY.COM\/SEASON-TICKETS<\/a>, with the club offering a Premiership package or combined Premiership\/NDL package.<\/p>\n
