He's been brought out of his induced coma and is now awake!

...and there are some very odd number 1s!!!! :-)

Or done what Klindt has done and swapped his qualifier with another rider - Rasmus Jensen - so he can ride for his Premiership team on Monday!! I guess its all about priorities.

The Poole Echo is reporting this morning that Klindt and Shanes will remain at reserve at least until mid-June, as their 4th home meeting is not til 7th June; with KK also remaining at Number 1.

Driving then walking on water!!! ;-) ;-) ps, Best of luck in your retirement Davey Watt.

Good luck Davey - a pleasure to watch at his best and great in the pits with the youngsters.

Well if you believe some on facebook, Vaculik will never ride regularly in the UK because he has a phobia of flying!!?

But Swindon didn't appeal it!! Rosco was quite happy for Kurtz to race and said so publicly. My issue is that a rider and/or a promotion is out of pocket - if only for travelling expenses - because the authorities didn't act quickly enough!!

With the line-ups for the 2 British semi-finals announced today, does that mean that Rory Schlein counts as one of Wolves Brits?! ;-)

Surely the point is not the time of the day but why it took til raceday to confirm/announce the ruling when the team line-up inc. Kurtz, was advised 72 hours previously??!

Hougaard's GSA after 3 meetings is 8.53 compared to his starting assessed CMA 8.70. The team total is currently 37.88 according to the BSPA list.

You don't know that for fact though do you?! Its only fan opinions and conjecture based on various possibilities and options.

Absent 2-5, I think you'll find!? ;-)

6.00 from 3 meetings. All the current averages are on the BSPA website under SGB Premiership averages.

Well Poland and Monster anyway!!

If a rider has ridden insufficient qualifying meetings his average might be reassessed by the MC as his actual average from last season??!! example - Davey Watt 5.40 instead of 7.56!!? Adam Ellis 5.60 instead of 7.69?! Thoughts

Very pleased with a point cos I didn't think we'd get one. Kurtz brought his own 'Australia's Got Talent' to the Rye raceway on Saturday evening. Hans - a bit upset with his own scores but pleased with the team point. (He last rode Rye House back in 2005!!)

Not just on here. Both the Somerset and Swindon promotions weren't clear about it - nor were they aware that the Danish Championships weren't FIM-affiliated!!!

Surprised it was not advised until Brady was in the pits. It was announced he was guesting on Wednesday last so why wait until he'd travelled?! (And yes a Poole fan commenting about a Poole rider on a Poole thread!!! Strange that ain't it!!??)

Brady blocked from guesting at Somerset tonite!!!!??

After whats happened at Somerset tonite with Brady Kurtz being refused permission to guest for Hougaard, then it'll be interesting to see if BWD is allowed to ride?! These rules really must be clarified and confirmed.

From the Somerset pits they are saying its the ' any rider missing from the 2-5 can only be covered by r/r' rule!!! Should be interesting at Rye House tomorrow then?!!

Oooh I shudder at the thought!!!

I believe that rule has been amended. 18.10 I think. As long as the missing double-up rider is riding for his other club then a guest or r/r can be used. (Schlein for Riss at Leicester v Poole was the first instance I believe).

I think thats a pretty fair statement from Horton - not going into any more detail about past issues and not 'pointing the finger'!!
