Reading the comments from the meeting at the NSS, it was said that Kurtz was riding "within himself" and was being hampered by some kind of injury... Therefore, it makes sense not to risk making things worse by doing any more racing... It was even questioned on a FB forum if he would be at Sheffield given his issue... If he rides in Sweden tonight then it wouldn't look "good", however I would imagine be has more than one eye on riding for Rybnik this weekend, who will no doubt be advising him... I do find it amusing though to read about riders "taking the pee" and getting 28 day bans, in a sport where running a meeting with a side made up of four guests and RR, isn't "taking the pee"... Like it or not, the bottom line is that riders missing meetings in this country doesn't devalue any competition any more or less than currently gets done by the operating model used each night... Meetings get actually planned in don't forget, when it is known some riders will be riding elsewhere, therefore, not sure why riders missing meetings is such an issue, as it obviously must be deemed "ok" to do so on other occasions...

Between his hand and his forearm....

Yes .. They start at 10pm..

If it's a draw on aggregate is there a super heat?..😁

After Ht8 it changes.. They then follow each other up near the fence rather than mid track. 😁

It's all very exciting isn't it?..😝

How was that start different? 😄

I would think Rybnik will have instructed him as to when he rides next.... Today would have been about Brady not letting the Aces down for a home match...

Carrying an injury from Poland.... Got a big weekend for Rybnik so makes sense to give it some rest ..

The Ipswich Switches ...😀

Might be worth any riders at a loose end tonight to nip down to Brum with their bikes and Kevlar's... Might get a team place...😁

A decent "ish" crowd I would think as it is a BHM.. 700, 750 or even more?.. Most who were going to attend will go anyway, just to watch the racing.. The make up of the teams isn't a barrier to the die hard fans, as they are well used to "made up' meetings.. And a BHM usually attracts a few "extras" who visit now and again..

Track would have been consistently watered....🤣

It would be interesting to see what Scott's Premiership "guesting" average is this season In the top 10 I would think...

Plenty of street parking on the main road where the entrance is, but get there with at least an hour to spare. A few side streets leading off it too which are ok.. The school across the road runs a paid car park and within 5 mins walk there are lots of on street opportunities outside houses and shops.. Edit. The food van outside is pretty decent too, but does get very busy, so, the earlier you arrive, the more chance of getting a slot on the main road, and something to eat. Regards, Simon Calder .

Gave him engines and mechanics, and also helped him with the mental side of the sport... Toughened him up a fair bit I would suggest... And, as for Brennan, decent progression this season.. A fair few average bashing Ht 15's yet has posted a decent figure, especially often carrying a poor team...

To be fair... In a HL position this year, not a SS/Reserve...

Poor crowd in Wroclaw... I have just seen an empty seat.... That Polish bubble must be bursting.... Edit. On no, my mistake someone must have just gone for a Gerd/Erik....

Do they have to learn that song that some KL fans put together a few years ago before they get their bibs??😁

Get there very early... Form an orderly queue....🤣

It's called the "changes to the atmospheric conditions prevailing above" regulation.... But only applies to left handed riders.. On Tuesdays... In May or June..

Come on the Witches...!! They could win this!!!!! Edit. Or draw then,..!!

Yes... It's all very exciting isn't it?

No, you are supposed to keep all your named riders from the first match.... Even if you are getting hammered every week and your crowd levels drop...

At least the lad turns up....
