Outgoing Shane is well known and well liked as one of the few true entertainers in speedway. A true showman and always one to acknowledge the fans. It was a great surprise when he became available in the winter and thankfully Glasgow were quick to move and secure his services.Shane is an all round sportsman and was the first rider to take advantage of the appalling 'doubling-down' ruling when it was brought in.
Never one to avoid contraversy or injustice, Shane is president of the speedway riders association and has gone on record as stating that speedway will never improve whilst the BSPA runs it.
The popular Aussie has riden for his country many times and has a list of Australian titles to long to mention.
Things will never be boring or mundane whilst Shane is around and Glasgow fans can look forward to some good entertainment.
