Swift Saint Posted April 22, 2009 Report Share Posted April 22, 2009 I am fairly certain that the closing date for entries is Monday for the round at Scunthorpe. That is when Graham Reeve is to advise us of the riders etc. Malclm Vasey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steven101 Posted April 24, 2009 Report Share Posted April 24, 2009 Yep track is 285 meters i think but i never rode Scunthorpe either but i ride Eastbourne most weeks which is 285 meters aswell so shouldn't be too bad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scunny Stag Posted April 26, 2009 Report Share Posted April 26, 2009 Is there any point in holding the 500cc series? only 5 riders It was suggested on Friday night that there is at least double that number now and similar in the 250cc class. If there was only two riders it would have been running the series as I feel a British Championship is a vital part of the youth development in this country and the only way to improve things is to offer opportunities to young riders to compete in the sport. Hopefully, we will know the final line-up in the next day or two. Good luck to all the riders involved. I hope you enjoy the experience and stay safe. For any rider who isn't aware of what the track rides like it has long sweeping bends and rides much bigger than its 285 metres suggests.
