Well go and watch cycle speedway then. No complicated internal combustion engines to baffle you there.

It gets large crowds abroad and the Indoor World Championship round at Sheffield has always been full. It's certainly 'different' compared to normal speed type motorcycle racing.

It's still worth promoting the sport in the more mainstream motorcycle press though. It's mainly people who have an interest in bikes that watch trials, but you don't see many Gas-Gas, Montesas or Fantics being ridden on the road.

Sunny with a few clouds 1.5 miles from the stadium.

Certainly a format for future consideration. Just a quick question, where do you put 32 riders and 64 bikes plus vans at Somerset?

It was posted on Facebook TUESDAY 23rd that the meeting announced for the 27th would not be going ahead. No I didn't ask what was going on at the meeting as I wasn't there and had no reason to be.

And you guessed incorrectly. Several other key staff had booked other things for this weekend once we were knocked out of the KOC & LC.

Are you simple?

Well it's not 'far fetched' if it actually happened is it? When/if you go again, try facing the noisy area of the stadium. That is the bit with the motorbikes racing round.

Well open your feckin eyes next time you go then. Another example even with my poor memory was Makinen passing an opposing rider in a nice move on the 1st and 2nd bend. Seen a fair few others as well.

Chris Widman?

If I remember correctly, the police did a test there in 2011 and the speed at the end of the straight going into the 3rd turn was around 75mph.

Wow!! Can you be team manager please? You could transform the team with advice and knowledge like that.

2600. It's disgusting that riders are allowed to have ambition.

Maybe Rover's being wormed that day?

Boon's the man for the job.

Smoking's bad for you, it fogs the mind.

On the track. At Leicester. Last night. Or are you as dim as your posts suggest?

They might have been the wrong type of passes though?

Were you standing down the straight? certainly plenty of dirt on the bikes.

I think you need to go to SpecSavers if you think there was no loose dirt flying around.

What was the qualifying process and did we all get a chance?

Can't he just get some black boot polish on and turn up anyway claiming he can't speak English?

There's already a shortage of team places for British riders. It's not going to help the careers of British riders by reducing opportunities even further. If a team feels the need to improve its commercial position further by employing foreign riders then the should go PL or EL. In 1989 when Jens Rasmusen joined Rye House it was said at the time that the floodgates had been opened. Look at the state of British speedway now.

Around about this time.
