A fair start for the fair-haired youngster. He kept his place in the team for the match with Kaparna, another defeat, but failed to open his account. So Getingarna finished bottom of the Swedish League without a point to their name and Bengt finished with an average of two points a meeting.

Close season talk had it that Getingarna were going to loan Bengt out to Second Division Taxarna. It never came about and when the 1961 season opened he was again wearing the colours of Getingarna. As reserve he rode in all but one of the league matches and had a top score of seven against rival Vargarna. His other scores mounted to 23 in six matches.
