While we may have all the cover we need it does not seem to speed things up that much.IMO
It is more important for the rider to have the proper attention though.
You have to wonder where a lot of riders keep their best Machinary these days.How riders are still trying to sort out bikes makes you doubt it's over here.
It's a few years back that the trouble started though,then the progression of young riders stopped through teams starting to double up with expierianced riders instead of promoting young riders.The " big " league has been in trouble for years now IMO .FRN has been a disaster and to have only 1 rider over 8 was clearly not though out.
Terry Russell has a nerve criticising lower league ,for years the lower leagues were fine but the "big" league was falling apart,then they starting messing about with doubling/down ,guests etc. and have put the sport in the sh#t that it is in.
