BEARS NAME 2022 TEAM
ERIK Riss and Kasper Andersen have both agreed deals to return to Redcar after successful stints with the Bears in 2019.
The duo raced for Birmingham and Berwick respectively this year but will be back on Teesside next season, whilst Adam Roynon returns after two previous spells with the club in 2011 and 2015 – and youngster Jason Edwards has been handed a slot at reserve.
Charles Wright, Lewis Kerr and Jordan Jenkins all return from the septet which reached the play-offs in the autumn.
Bears manager Jade Mudgway said: “Lewis and Erik fell in a similar bracket, Lewis having a sensational last half of the season for us whilst Erik – well, we know what Erik can do when he’s given a track he can attack.
“I was gutted when Kasper had visa issues last year meaning we had to look for other options, and it hurt seeing him come here with Berwick and ride like I knew he could! He has the potential to put big points on his average.
“2022 will be a busy season. We have agreed the addition of a new summer competition and that should fill our home fixtures up nicely. I really think every rider in this team can improve their average and get us to the all-important play-offs.”
