This meeting was held at Gillman in South Australia, the qualifyers join those already seeded to compete in the four round national championship which kicks off at the same "Gillman"venue this Friday night.

OK! Slight panic on not seeing Kev Doolan's name in the list of qualifiers, went speedily to the Gillman speedway website to thankfully discover that he's been given one of the 10 seeded places due to the fact that the polish guy can't come. Sorry to him, but phew for Kev! Got a bit worried there! Well done to Cam, looks like the injury's is sorted!

I actually thought Cam looked a bit underdone but he managed to do enough to qualify, he will be far better off now he has a meeting under his belt I reckon.

 

Hard luck story of the night included Corey Gathercole missing out largely by virtue of a tapes exclusion. Only four scoring rides in that kind of field makes it rather difficult. Also having a bad luck story was Trevor Harding who's bike seemed to slow on his last ride. Still, if either of those two had qualified then I would equally be saying Woodward or Ksiezak were unlucky to miss out.

 

Troy Batchelor was untouchable. He was only headed once all night and retook the lead on the next bend with relative ease. Tood Wiltshire rode like a rider who hasn't had any time off and none of his skills seem to have diminished. It will be interesting to see how he goes in the titles proper with the step up in quality of the opposition.

 

Great to catch up with some friends and meet some new ones, and the jumbo sausage with onion STILL has to be the best value feed at any speedway track around. Roll on the first round tomorrow night.

 

Anyway, this internet cafe lark is causing the $'s to mount up so I'm off for a pint !!

Bad luck for Trev. Does it means he has to travel to each of the four meetings as reserve ?? If he or Daniel reads this can they call me asap. Will send them a txt today as they may well still be in Adelaide then.

 

Edited now as contact made . The wonders of modern technology!! :blink:

It's going great Rabbit !!

 

I'm getting used to putting out a pair of shorts and a T shirt last thing before I go to bed and have learnt that an absolute essential is going to toilet the very last thing before retiring for the evening !!

Oh yeah rabbit, it's a real chick magnet ... just not in Sth Aust or Vic :cry: but I'm eagerly awaiting New South Wales !!

 

I know it was darned hot at Mildura, even though it really didn't it seemed to get hotter as the night went on. It was 39 at 5pm, down to 35 by 9pm, 31 at midnight and a lovely cool overnight low of 26 at 6am (courtesy of http://www.bom.gov.au/products/IDV65360/ID...60.94693.shtml)

 

No need to pack your woolly nightie if you come over !!

If no one else does prior to the end of next week SD. I'll do the necessary for you upon my return to the UK (my proggie is currently buried somewhere in a suitcase!)
