Olle
(First of the Super Swedes) has competed in more than 25,000 Speedway
races over the years. He started racing in 1949 and was third in the 1953
and 1954 world championships. This is not to mention seven years at
ice racing and eight championships titles in road racing. In 1979 he
hung up his boots and started what was probably the first Speedway school.
Kings Lyn Stadium was his chosen venue. Complete beginners and the more
experienced have taken advantage of Olle's gift for teaching.
