Main Man Posted April 25, 2015 Report Share Posted April 25, 2015 MDL Friday 24th April 2015 CITY GEARBOXES Coventry Vikings 18 Belle Vue Colts 18 Unbeaten Belle Vue snatched a MDL point at the 11th hour when Coventry Vikings looked set to start their campaign with a win but home man Danyon Hume hit the deck when on a 3-3 ..but that’s speedway! The Colts lost young Stephen Whitehouse with bike damage when he lifted coming out of the gate in heat 2 somehow missing the other three riders. Conor Dwyer led his side by example with two superb wins before missing the gate out of the graveyard gate 1 in the final race but chased Belle Vue’s Tom Bacon for the four laps as he inflicted the home man’s only defeat of the night. Robert Parker battled hard for the home side and gained a reward winning his last ride whilst Danyon Hume , in for the unavailable Callum Walker who is in Germany for a long track meeting, lost out on points in two rides when falling in point scoring positions. 16 year old local lad Mitchell Beckett made his debut for the Vikings and rode steadily to notch 2 and a bonus and with two Coventry born and bred boys in their side this is pleasing for the club. For the Colts Tom Bacon , ironically a Coventry boy too, top scored with 8 backed up by David Holt with 6 and Sam Darroch , who recovered from a first race fall, to notch 4 and a bonus.
