Swedish Elitserien Round 15

What a load of fuss about nothing. both were racing incidents caused by 2 riders going for it, neither were particularly dirty but unfortunately it caused a big crash in one of them. Grow up kids... -

woooooooooowww...iversen...that was a move and a half -
because, at the end of the day, its blokes on a bike going round and round in circles, as soon as the media and most of the general public realise this, instant switch off. occasionally a few will see past this, like the chap from the mirror(?) lately who went to his first meeting and loved it, writing a decent report. i'd think its the main reason why there is no interest in NASCAR and stock cars in the UK. (not that it appeals to me)

Watching the replay of the tangle between kennett and scott on that first bend, Eddie bounces around quite a bit and i think gets his foot stuck between the track and the footrest in the process which it seems pushes the footrest backwards on its pivot so its the footrest is much further back than it should be, meaning he couldnt put enough weight on it to slide the bike round. on the replay it shows kennett scrabbling to get his foot back on the rest round the first bend but not quite being able to find it. i think that was the main reason why he was just nursing it round. that said, kennet said in an interview that his engine was seizing up too! so my theory could be poppycock, but his footrest did look to be out of place after the prang. Come on, you cant deny that it was at the very least tricky to ride early on. if the track was more like the usual monmore we often see, both grippy and smooth im sure it would have made for a much better spectacle. im all for passing in every heat, but id much rather watch it from riders going at it hammer and tong together a la robson and steady, rather than riders bucking about and straightening up heading for the fence and being passed. that, to be honest, doesnt really excite me at all, its just unpredictable. each to their own though. the last meeting at monmore on sky, i thought, was a much better watch, even though the track was slick, but it was consistent, meaning all riders could have a go.

Leszno Gp - 24th April 2010

year long gpitis for holder anyone? -
Hopefully Crumpy will be in town after the Ben Fund Meeting a few days before. Would be great to see Lindback and Emil too after Emil had visa problems this time last year. Hopefully Patch could get Rune to come over aswell, maybe butter him up for a place in the 2011 team along side Zagar Talk of the devil, hopefully he'll be there too. should be a good one whoever comes off though.
