POOLE promoter Matt Ford believes his winter capture of former World Under-21 Champion Maciej Janowski will prove to be an astute piece of transfer business.Ford has agreed a swap deal with Swindon which also makes Jason Doyle a Robins asset, and he feels Janowski can compensate for the fact that Krzysztof Kasprzak has moved on to Coventry this year.Ford said: Maciej is not going to be an overnight KK, but every time he has visited to Wimborne Road in the U21s or for Swindon or Kings Lynn in the past he has been an absolute revelation.  The fact I have also been able to capture him as a full asset to the club this winter is a double bonus. I am as excited about bringing him to Poole as I have been with Hans Andersen, Krzysztof Cegielski, Chris (Holder) and Darcy (Ward) in the past.(SPEEDWAY 2)

WOLVERHAMPTON ace Tai Woffinden is to take on a gruelling challenge to raise money for Cancer Research UK.Woffinden will cycle from Monmore Green to the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff over two days ahead of the British Grand Prix on Saturday, June 1, and hopes to raise at least 20,000 for the cause having lost his father Rob to cancer in 2010.Woffinden said: I will cycle via Birmingham, Redditch, Gloucester, the Severn Bridge, Newport and arrive in Cardiff on the Wednesday night in good time to prepare for the British GP.My Dad is the inspiration behind this project. He did everything for me to get me started in Speedway and I said at the time we lost him that I had lost my best friend as well as my Dad.Donations can be made through Woffindens Just Giving page www.justgiving.com/taiwoffinden01008 and Woffinden is hoping to raise funds through other projects as well.
