Speedway career

Thomas first came to notice in the United Kingdom in July 2010, whilst a member of the Team Viking touring side. In a meeting against Plymouth he broke the track record and became the first rider to go below 50 seconds. Following a string of impressive performances on that tour Thomas attracted the attention of several Premier League clubs, eventually signing a contract with Scunthorpe Scorpions for the 2011 season. Thomas returned to the United Kingdom late in 2010 for a one off meeting at Scunthorpe where he became winner of the inaugural Rob Woffinden memorial trophy.

He stayed at Scunthorpe for four seasons in total, averaging around 7 each year before joining Berwick Bandits for the 2015 Premier League speedway season. He averaged just below 8, which sealed another year with the Scottish club for the 2016 season.[1]

In 2017, he joined the King's Lynn Stars and has remained with them since.[2][3] In 2022, he rode for King's Lynn in the SGB Premiership 2022.[4]

In 2022 he was riding for Nordjsyk in his native Denmark but the club withdrew from the Danish Speedway League which resulted in Jørgensen switching to Holsted Tigers.[5]

In 2023, he re-signed for King's Lynn for the SGB Premiership 2023[6] and also signed for Berwick Bandits for the SGB Championship 2023, having previously ridden for them during 2015 and 2016.[7]
