KING’S Lynn duo Rory Schlein and Mads Korneliussen have both signed-up to ride in the Ben Fund Bonanza at their home Adrian Flux Arena circuit.Korneliussen is making his return to the Stars in 2016 after two years away, whilst for Schlein the March 12 event will mark his comeback from the serious back injuries he sustained in a crash in Poland last May.Schlein said: “I’m nearly ready. I start training with my new trainer in the first couple of weeks in January. He’s marked out a six-week programme, which is shorter than I normally do, but he says that’s all I need. He’s happy.“I got the green light on December 18 from my Polish surgeons, who did all the operations, so it’s a matter of getting fit again and seeing what the body can cope with.”

NEW Somerset signing Rohan Tungate is looking to keep up his momentum as the Australian Championships get underway this weekend.Tungate raced to victory in the Jason Crump Invitational meeting in Kurri Kurri on Boxing Day, and the opening round of the national championship takes place at the same venue this Saturday.Tungate said: “Having Jason in the meeting as well made it extra special because the guy is a legend not only here in Australia but also in the world of speedway and he's still fast on a bike.“The meeting has given me the perfect tonic now for the upcoming Australian Championships. It's a strong looking field with a few riders in with a shout of winning it and I plan on having a strong start and see where we are after the opening meeting.”
