Mark Riss is third racer to commit to Monarchs


Riss, who joined the speedway outfit in June, lines up alongside his younger brother Erik and new signing, American Ricky Wells.
After a period of settling in, Riss showed decent form towards the tail-end of last season and believes he has much more to offer.

“I felt a lot more comfortable at the end of the campaign and I’m confident I can do even more next year especially as I have got the Armadale track dialled in now.”
Riss is likely to start off at reserve and he added: “I think it will be good for me if I begin at reserve in order to get some points on the board to start with. I would feel comfortable with that and then maybe move in to the team at number three or four.
“I’m already thinking about my preparations for the new season. I will be riding again for Landshut in Germany and may get some guest rides for Silkeborg in Denmark.”
