Nice at last to read a informative post that answers a lot of questions, you obviously witnessed first hand. Thank you for posting the facts

Nice words mate

Long walk for you to Swindon!!!

Team GB had lunch at the same hotel I was staying at, rest assured they ALL ate very healthy with the fitness coach present

You must have some stories from that Doc!

Regarding Darcy, yes agree with you was an amazing talent, but I have always questioned how he coped under pressure. I've watched Darcy all over the UK & Europe & never for one minute questioned his ability, but his record in GP finals is not that great, so many times he would buckle in SF, When he came back from his ban for Swindon, yes I thought he was a better rider, yet when Swindon travelled to Poole, bumper crowd, did he handle the pressure, nope. Would he have over come this, we will never know. But for talent he was right up there. The only rider in my era who was more NATURALLY talented was Gollob, who IMO could do things on a bike like no other!

Yep I hear what you say regarding Cook, but will jump to his defence that he is a totally different rider this year, far more relaxed on the bike. Was amazed at the BF when he missed the gate but no panic set in. Big call to make the GP, but I personally if he failed to qualify, a wild card would not be wasted on him!

Would put money on it, you will not see him at Lynn next year

He will ride where its most lucrative for him, this after all is his living

Injured riders over the years have always picked & choose what meetings to ride in, I could fill page after page giving you examples!

Any late weather updates would be much appreciated

No way in this world on current form could you put Masters over Morris ?

Gollob in 2010 in Torun

Only my 3rd visit to Leicester this year, but IMO much improved racing

David Steen, remember watching him, that's a blast from the past. whatever happened to him ? Looked ok from what I remember

Tool of the highest order, you must be related!

Have you not looked at Bridgers points now on GM!

After Berwick my next trip to Ipswich, Newcastle, Lambert! hope to catch you then. Not sure about the Lucozade! lol

Off topic, hey come on, you must go v Berwick, Bridger! Was going to PM you to say ill get you a pint

Well I tell you what, at Leicester last Saturday in all the years I've been following speedway, I have NEVER seen Poole supporters in such low numbers. If I'm honest, I cant ever recall seeing you at any away meetings

Nick will be at Berwick on Saturday

Can anyone tell me if Bridger will be fit to ride at Peterborough this Sunday. I have checked Berwick website nothing, but in this weeks Speedway Star it says there might be doubt over his fitness, if anyone does happen to know, a reply would be appreciated

Who's reached his peak ????? Can't agree with you 2 years is nothing, IMO it's huge at that age!!!

Yep think your about right about 800

Can you repeat that
