Right Ok, how is this then......

 

1) Krystof Kasprazak 7.97

2) Lasse Bjerre 4.28

3) Kenneth Bjerre 8.45

4) David Howe 3.80 or Linus Eklof 3.80

5) Danny King 7.46

 

Total 31.96

 

6) Lewis Blackbird

7) Lewis Rose

 

Might do reasonably well, make play offs if all stay fit....

Yep happy with that, got to be David Howe instead of Linus Eklof though. Local lad and his commitment to racing whilst injured, has to be commended, even though a little silly.

 

But hey it's the end of November, we have a long way to go until the season starts, a lot of riders sitting around waiting for the phone call. Going to be a long winter for both riders and fans alike.

That would be a fairly decent team. When using KK it's important you keep him away from the no'1 spot as he will let you down.

Barker is very inconsisent at Leicester.

because he is an inconsistent starter which it seems is rather a handicap at Leicester.

For a guide to team possibilities, it could be worth looking at the Eastbourne situation for parallels, as they are in a similar situation regards the regular race night being Saturday and the problems that brings. How attractive will a Saturday commitment in the UK be, for someone contracted to ride in Poland the next day? Or will sufficient Leicester home matches not actually be on a Saturday - in addition to the Grand Prix/SWC/SEC avoidances. Is the promotion finding it a bit difficult so far due to those reasons?

Some of the names mentioned so far in previous posts here, have those kind of commitments and would probably jump at the chance of riding in the UK for a team with Friday/Thurday/Wednesday as the main race night in preference to a Saturday one e.g. Lakeside, Swindon, Kings Lynn, Coventry.

Birmingham are in a real mess by the sound of it, and so could have problems attracting riders and does anyone know what's actually going to happen to Belle Vue next season in so far as where they will be riding and on which night? I think that it's all far from a clear picture at the moment. Let's hope that something more encouraging emerges soon, who knows a full 1-5 could be announced all at once, as with last year's 1-7.

it's not his gating, it's his ability to carry his speed off the long straights and into the turns. he certainly knows the right line around bp and his times demonstrate that.

 

Except when he doesn't gate when, like every else, all he demonstrates is how hard it is to pass even the slowest of riders around BP.
