Adam Sheppard - Can You Help?

Adam in Action

I'm trying to break into speedway at the moment, and have my own 500cc Jawa Speedway Bike, and other bits of equipment, but as you surely should know in these economic times it is tough for any walks of life, working, hobbies etc, so that's why I'm asking you to perhaps contribute towards my racing, for in return to be having your logo or company names on my equipment or merchandise. (A family member makes all of the t-shirts, mugs, and many other merchandise/products with professional equipment, so there wouldn't be any extra cost if your logo were to be put on my merchandise, and there is an opportunity that they can make your own merchandise also.)

The contribution amount doesn't matter, anything is good, even if it's money towards Methanol, Oil or money for a new wheel - anything to help towards the running/maintaining costs of the bike.

I'm only 15 years of age (16 on Nov 30th) and my personal aim is to break into National League Speedway by the age of 16/17.

I've ridden three meetings so far in my life, one at Sittingbourne in which I scored 2, 2, Crashed - Remounted, 3 , 2 = 9 in what was my first meeting.

Then I travelled to Newport and scored 3, 3, Did Not Start, 3, 3 = 12. The one race I didn't start was down to carburettor troubles.

In my third meeting I was moved up into a higher class and scored 3, 3, 1, 1 = 8 then finished third in the final, which I was pleased about.

If you would like to help me or more information then please contact me via email on westham12345@hotmail.com
