Any ideas who is guesting for Pedersen and Lambert?

 

This will be a good chance for the new riders to get some practice on their tracks over the 2 legs and try things with their equipment.

Pedersen tweeted he is riding.

 

Blow the cobwebs away and no injuries is more important than the result.

I feel if people pay good money they expect top entertainment not riders practising or trying out bike set ups,one way for newbies never to return.

Its basically a pre season friendly and fans should know that beforehand. Prices should be reduced to reflect this though.

I agree the prices should be reduced, but I would guess all the riders would still want full payment for the meeting? I would also guess the riders may be testing equipment, but I would expect this, if they test it now and it helps with set ups when the season starts all the better. Would rather them find out what works and what doesn't in this meeting, with no league points at stake.

I agree prices should be reduced with a max £10 for this meeting.

Why should it be cheaper? There was loads of challenge matches and spurious cup competitions in the seventies and eighties...did they reduce prices then....of course not.

If you were a long term fan of the sport you would know that!

There you go, something happened in the 70s and 80s and it should happen now too. Jimmy Saville felt up lots of kids back then too, should we bring that back too?

Bjarne Pedersen IS riding for the Lions on Sunday. I tweeted him and he replied he will be riding for Lions and he is also in Rory Schleins Testimonial!!!!!

Quite right. No self respecting rider should be treating a meeting that people are paying good money for a gloryfied practice and I don't think they will. People don't seem to miss a trick to get a few coppers knocked off the price of a ticket. I for 1 will be expecting my full 17 quids wotth
