Eagles skipper: I got off lightly
Lee Richardson admits he got off lightly in his dramatic Polish smash.
The Eastbourne Eagles skipper suffered a bruised left hand, damaged right wrist and various aches and pains, including in the neck, after coming off in his first ride for Czestochowa against Torun.
He has declared himself fit enough to face his previous club Swindon at Arlington tomorrow night but admits he was shaken up in the four-way crash which also saw team mate Michal Sczczepaniak suffer a broken shoulder.
Richardson said: "It could have been worse. I was extremely lucky to walk away.
"I got away in front and then all I remember was a bang coming in alongside me. My head was spinning after that."
Richardson was taken to hospital in Poland after Thursday's match, which his side lost 50-41.
He was hoping to get more treatment and plenty of rest back in England before taking on the league-leading Robins at Arlington.
