Unsure wether troy is riding. Workington comets facebook page states vuolas joins tate, but no mention of troy.

I hope so. I wonder who his mechanic is this season. You'd have thought they'd have it sorted a couple of heats in

Disappointed with the comets lads today. Vuolas improved as the meeting went on and I have no concerns he'll do well at home this season. Tate is the one concerning me. Coming in as the no.5 is a big ask after such a big injury. Last year he was superb. Today he looked slow gating and even slower around the track. I just hope it's the bike and not his confidence. It did seem like the bike was running slow.

Unsure how to feel about this. Troy is a strong gater and has loads of experience. However, vuolas is very quick around northside, quicker than troy. Be some good racing today.

I'm not too sure. I first head it was signal issues but you get 5G up there no bother. It could be card processing fees? I don't know. Maybe someone else can chip in and provide an explanation.

Weather is looking superb all week up here. I just hope they manage to keep the dust down because they struggled on many occasions last year. Can't wait for the return of speedway though. Excited.

Impressed with all the riders today. I know it's only practicing but I thought everyone looked quick. Bowes took to the track really well. The improvements to the facilities are top notch. The air fence, refs box, new toilets, and expansion of the viewing is impressive. We now have the best track in the league and with a few more improvements it could be the best overall.

Eh?

Anyone getting some of the new merch? Bought myself a pit shirt and softshell.

Yeh, he looks like he'll be a good rider for us. Gates well and the little mistake taking the bend too wide was punished by two good riders.

Anyone watching the crump solo classic? Bought it a month ago because I got my dates completely wrong. Shame Tate isn't riding but Bowes looked solid in his first heat. Gated well and had plenty of speed. I'm sure having his own machinery (if he does) and track experience is playing a part.

I won't bother in future. I can see why some people leave the forum though.

Not being negative at all. My first comment was regarding cookie and batch. Both have their flaws and I was trying to spark a discussion in this thread due to it being quiet for a while. My second was regarding the financial situation and I clearly stated I hope the comets are here for the foreseeable. If you can't have a wide range of different topics going on in a forum then what's the point of a forum? This spots got a few wet wipes and snowflakes.

Imagine calling it bitching when I'm having a discussion on a public forum. A forum is there to engage discussion. Clown.
