Harrison Ryan to compete at Somersby

Umina's Harrison Ryan will compete in Round Seven of the Interstate Winter Junior Speedway Series hosted by Central Coast Junior Motorcycle Club at Allen Park Raceway, Somersby, from 9am on July 30.

Nephew of five-time NSW Champion and local legend Mick Poole, he will compete in a top class field of 125cc junior speedway riders from all over NSW.

Harrison was on the winner's rostrum at the last Somersby meeting just losing out to series leader Maurice Brown in the A final.

Ryan is keen to follow in the footsteps of the many junior speedway stars who have honed their dirt track skills on the Allen Park circuit.

"We are expecting some really competitive racing with vital championship points up for grabs ahead of the final round scheduled for October 1 at Kurri Kurri," publicity officer Mr Terry Starbuck said.

"We are hoping to attract a bumper crowd to support the young speedway stars of tomorrow.

"Admission is free and there will be one dollar sausage sizzles with hot food and refreshments available from 9.am," he said.
