So an Instagram statement from Plymouth Promoter confirming they will run in 2027 thanks to a big donation from a Reading fans group! Barely a week after the end of the season - that's some effort!!😉
There surely has to be a place for Kyle Newman?!
Voted the Fans' Rider of the Year at last night's End of Season Party and having stepped into the Vice-Captain role whenever Zach was unavailable this season, he is surely a candidate for Captain in 2027!!
Strange as it may seem, the End of season party is about 2026!! It'll give him the chance to explain the full extent of his spinal injuries - not all of which were initially diagnosed - but did explain why he was in so much pain when trying to race the bike.
I hope that's a deep enough dive for you, whether he returns or not!!
So the first rider reveal for the 2027 Pirates is at this evening's Pirates End of Season Party and Hogroast.(at approx. 8.30pm I'm told having done a deep dive into the evening's arrangements)
Also the Fans' Rider of the Year Award to be presented
Riders in attendance will include most of the 2026 Pirates plus video interviews with Slater Lightcap and Fraser Bowes'
Should be a fun evening!🤙😆
