Rider Keskinen quits Redcar Bears

Speedway

Redcar Bears' Finnish rider Joni Keskinen has announced he is quitting the club to return to his homeland.

Keskinen, 22, joined the Bears in mid-May but has failed to settle in.

Redcar promoter Glyn Taylor has wished the Finn the best for the future: "He wants to regroup and return later in the season."

"Many fans may not realise that Joni returned to the sport after spending six months in a wheelchair following an horrific track accident back home."
