Reel45 Episode 53 - Diamonds are forever!

It's been a year since we started the Reel45 Podcast and we are so proud to say that we accomplished it without missing a weekly episode. This is Episode 53! We recap a little on the last 12 months as well as a long discussion on Greg's recent Diamond Cup success. 2018 was the first year of the new Speedway series called "Speedway Diamond Cup"! The Diamond Cup creator Irek Nawrocki from Poland went against the odds and pulled off an amazing 3 round series with the top four riders winning actual Diamonds. It was a great series so Greg tells us all about it and his hopes for the future of it. Enjoy the Diamonds and thanks for listening over the last year. See you next week on the Reel45 Podcast!"

Episode 50- It didn't go to plan!

Thanks for listening and "Grin 2 Win"!

Episode 49- It's not just about Speedway!

For Greg, Speedway is a career, job, ambition and hobby but its not the only thing in life. Wives, partners and families play such a major role in our daily lives including speedway. Greg talks in brief about his life in the fast paced speedway world (his job) and how he tries compromise that with his wife and family. There are awlays ups and downs but communication is the key, he says.....

Greg and Stefan take a recap of the week gone by with the Slovenian Grand Prix, Polish League Semi Finals, Swedish Elite League Semi Finals and the unfortunate injury to Patryk Dudek during the clash with Västervik last Tuesday.

Episode 47 - What happens in the van stays in the van

Motorcycle racers spend much time in their vans or race transporters. There is a lot that happens behind the closed doors. Do you ever wonder what goes on in the van? It might a race celebration or facing the agony of defeat. No matter what, many discussions take place as well as sharing the confidential information of the event ahead or the event that just finished. We are giving you the chance to join Greg for an experience of what goes on inside the van along with a live Reel45 Podcast together with both Greg and Stefan. Listen in and pay attention to our @reel45podcast social media for more details.

Episode 45- Bruce Penhall/The Real 45

This is the Episode that Greg has been waiting for. Well, we have have been building up to Episode 45 and trying to determine what guest we would approach. Of course it was an easy choice with 2x World Speedway Champion, Hollywood Actor and a great mentor/hero to Greg: Bruce Penhall! As a kid, Greg wanted the number 45 which came from his hero Bruce Penhall and has stuck with him throughout his career to date. In the world of speedway, most people know who the number 45 belongs to but what more lies behind it?? 

This podcast brought out some interesting yet truthful stories that many don't know and that includes Greg. Much success with racing, a great Hollywood career, and family man who had a hard time getting away from racing. Following the tragic accident with Bruce's youngest son Connor, life changed quickly for the Penhall family and you too should hear how. 

We could not make the trip to California to get this podcast with Bruce so it was done over a weblink which went pretty good most of the way but we ended with a severly disrupted signal at the later stage of the Podcast. We considered re-recording the podcast but the content that we got from Bruce relating to the family and accident involving his son Connor was so touching that we could not do that again and have it spelled out so clearly. Please, please accept our apologies with the late disruptions but do not be discouraged from listening to this touching story. Bruce Penhall is a true legend... 

 

Thanks for listening. Reel 45
