godmother Posted July 15, 2007 Report Share Posted July 15, 2007 Dave's hobby is riding a bike, if he beats kids on the way so be it. You make it sound as if he has got something against the up and coming kids, when you couldn't be further from the truth. Ask any of the lads who rode for the Sheff. conference team what Dave is like.Someone has to make up the numbers at these meetings and provide someone to beat! Not all the second half kids are ready to hack it in a "real meeting ", they need some practice against the likes of Dave and others of his standard.(Rant over ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spin king Posted July 15, 2007 Report Share Posted July 15, 2007 I beleive that the likes of stephens and burrows are fine to ride in the CL as they provide much needed experience/knowledge to younger lads,but the likes of speight,birkinshaw etc are never going to get better than CL really and are taking the places of these young lad. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Birko is averaging 6 point plus for all PL, PT and KOC meetings, is in the full body of the Sheffield team, only 27, and for the record he was nearly always there for the Sheffield Training track to encourage the youngsters before the was closed down Hope you feel a bit stupid now Matty.

spin king Posted July 15, 2007 Report Share Posted July 15, 2007 If we are talking age then the point that I was making is that James is a lot yonger than the other two, Burrows is about the same age as me, now that is old. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
