Berwick Bandits have just two places left to fill in their 2025 line-up following the announcement that Dane Bastian Borke will be returning to the Borders\u2019 track.<\/p>\n

The 22-year-old\u2019s all-action style made him an instant hit with the Shielfield Park fans only for his season to end painfully following a huge crash at Poole in May.<\/p>\n

That left the former Edinburgh man with leg injuries so severe that he may never fully regain use of his left foot.<\/p>\n

Borke underwent surgery in his native Denmark to replace a nerve in the leg three weeks ago and is undertaking laser treatment in addition to hours in the gym as he looks to be fully fit for the new season.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Berwick promoter Steve Dews said: \u201cBastian was an instant hit with our fans last season and was consistently putting in big performances before his season ended so painfully.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cA think he is on a bargain average and has so potential to improve that next year.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cOnce we were happy that he was progressing to full fitness after his operation it was a fairly easy decision to bring him back to Berwick.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Borke joins Craig Cook, Drew Kemp, Rory Schlein and Danyon Hume as confirmed starters leaving Berwick with 7.33 points to cover the remaining two riders.<\/p>\n
