My point is that there seems to be more injuries than there ever used to be in the 'old days' so early in the Season. Hence my claim that current day Bikes and Tracks are not ideally suited to each other. There were injuries back in the Seventies - yes - but not so many and not so early.
People are pulling my leg over my curiosity regarding something called norbold's hole.
I am playing along with them.
I do hope that explains things to your satisfaction.
As I said - it is only a bit of fun.Their comments make me smile, and I hope that my comments make them smile.
What a fine prospect Robert Lambert is turning out to be. He was superb this evening. I doubt I have ever seen a sixteen year old show so much maturity on a Speedway Bike before. Not only did he win Races for fun - he Team rode like a veteran.
I wish him all the very best in the future. If he stays as grounded - as he appeared to be on Television tonight - he may be another English Rider to get to the very top of the Sport. I certainly hope so.
I thoroughly enjoyed watching him this evening.
No Jacques - I don't. Sexism is very wrong too. I do the ironing in our house.
So YES - I condemn that as well.
(unless, of course, it is in a humerous context). :shock:
