Ipswich should finish before 4.15 which gives him 3 hours to get here, usually takes 2 hours ish. Hopefully the traffic isnt too bad. Ricky Wells guesting for Simon Stead.

Dornier Posted April 17, 2014 Report Share Posted April 17, 2014 (edited) Don`t think it will be a walk over for the Bees as some seem to think. The Lions have one or two riders that can come up with match winning performances, am expecting Doyle, Mads, and Hougard to be a serious threat ,all are capable of double figures plus Stead and Ljung as back up and am thinking a hard meeting for the Bees.......

mdmc82 Posted April 17, 2014 Report Share Posted April 17, 2014 Ricky Wells is in as a guest for stead. Leicester have riders who usually ride well at Brandon esp Mads, Wells and Patrick. Â Hopefully there will be some dirt on the track and we can see the kind of excitement from Hansen we saw against Poole. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemini Posted April 17, 2014 Report Share Posted April 17, 2014 I hope that the Leicester promoter has explained the importance of this and the return match on Saturday to the Leicester Riders! It doesn't matter to me if Leicester do not win any other matches this season as long as they beat the Bees! I well remember as a lad in the 1950's catching a double decker Leicester City Transport bus (one of about 12) to Brandon on a Saturday night and buying hot dogs (with onions) from the man at the back of the banking on the 3rd bend. Delicious! Even more delicious if the Hunters (as they were then) won. Me too but more for the fact I was sitting on the top deck when it got damaged by branches from trees on route. Pretty scary! No M69 in those days but I can't remember exactly where the incident happened. Â Ricky Wells is in as a guest for stead.

I was looking forward to watching him as he's one of my favourite riders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fliss44 Posted April 17, 2014 Report Share Posted April 17, 2014 They will hold the meeting up for him like they did barker a few seasons ago.

jrs Posted April 17, 2014 Report Share Posted April 17, 2014 (edited) Thanks. Â Â Â Blimey! Never heard of him. Hope he can gate. Gem, he's a young Aussie doing well at Edinburgh, so with a bit of luck he'll pick up a few points for the Bees. And its Fricke not Ficke, hope you enjoy the meeting, brings back memories of the olden days lol Edited April 17, 2014 by jrs 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
