Flint rides for Landshut.

I can't seem to find a line up so assume its not yet been declared.

My assumption (we know who that is the Mother of) was that Thompson has chosen to fulfill his Edinburgh commitments instead and other U21's have probably done the same with their Championship fixtures (assume Cooper is guesting for Worky?) leaving Cairns to go for the experience.

Good to hear! 👍 Meanwhile here in Norfolk we've had our first rain for a few weeks overnight, some of the lawns I mow have started to turn brown with cracks! Need more 🌨️

Quite agree, I see these lads as a pairing and they have been equally impressive so far, very different styles but both so quick for their age and experience. Jody's ride in heat 4 was so mature and Cooper took responsibility in heat 14 to ensure at least a draw. As exciting as Fricke & Harris are another top end these two youngsters are the highlight so far for me and they have improved so much already in just a month.

Absokutely.He came good in heat 15 tonight, he'll be absolutely fine given time. Lynn isn't an easy place to set your bike up for, we've seen that many times in the past. Jan is really struggling with engines set ups and now confidence, hopefully he can get that sorted soon. Bomber was absolutely vintage and his ride in heat 15 was a thing of beauty. But the main story is the reserves, they came of age this evening. So much speed and potential and tonight points too. And there is so much more to come. A very satisfying night for Lynn fans.

This is a familiar BSF tale of somebody stating something as fact, lots of others jumping on the bandwagon and a fifteenth story revealing itself later on.

While this is a very different situation to Museilak and Cook (National Championship, no Polish club involved, he'd be getting banned from two British clubs and not one) the bottom line is that IF he doesnt ride tonight that's three consecutive seasons where a Lynn rider has ridden abroad but not here and risked/got a ban. Not a good look at all. If it happens that's an awful lot of meetings and income he will miss in the UK over a 28 day period though. I suspect @szkocjasid is correct, he'll have aggravated it in Italy yesterday.

Exacerbated

FMI Speedway Italian Championship - Round 2 - Terenzano https://share.google/iNUvmqsCSUhgaEqQ8

Lynn currently don't stream their meetings.

Have you got a link for that meeting please? If he was fit surely he'd have ridden for Landsut yesterday.

Thanks for that, interesting stuff. A good insight into how the Polish tracks (and all tracks) differ in shape and size can be found on the Speedway Challenge (SC26) game which can be downloaded on your phone, all tracks on there are based on the actual circuits and you have to 'ride' them differently on the game. The Polish tracks in particular all vary quite significantly.

This account s clearly a parody....why are people reacting/responding?

Heat 5 from Monday evening.

I get what you are saying but I think we need to avoid criticising riders who start these fisticuffs, and I'd certainly never accuse anyone who rides a speedway bike of being a pussy, if anything I am as I had one go once and never will again 😂 We need more of this stuff.

Great race and great confrontation! Didn't see a huge amount wrong with Howarth's move, it was hard but didn't look dirty from that angle.

I think the Foxes can be satisfied with their start, two decent scores away from home and several riders performing above the expectations of many.

Excellent, we need more of that!

Some serious talent in that list.

Lastest episode of the Pride of the East Podcast including a chat with Cooper Rushen: Apologies for the sound quality my end, was trying out a new headset and suffice to say I'll be going back to the usual one next week!

Clouds of dust and a blue groove just aren't acceptable, any track serving that up (however good the racing) needs to do better I'm afraid.

Oxford that good or Plymouth that bad?
