cityrebel Posted June 8, 2015 Report Share Posted June 8, 2015 Iv said it many times before but our watering bowser is not strong enough it barely puts any water down and as soon as it was sprinkling on top, bob was hammering over it on the tractor drying it out almost instantly.i totally agree with you, at times yesterday the riders visibility must have been poor. What's needed at eastie is a proper water tanker, as well as the crop sprayer that they already use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevec Posted June 11, 2015 Report Share Posted June 11, 2015 I am trying to help with the watering situation. You can see this on Martins and ITFirsteagles twitter. Not sure what I am involved in will be watering the track during meetings but it will be used in the build up to meetings. I have found out a fair bit about watering tracks and it seems it is a bit of a fine art to make sure it does not get too wet but is dry enough to stop dust. I wont go in to it but I was a bit surprised. I thought you just put water down! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Junior I am not getting in to a debate. I am just trying to help the club with some equipment and merely pointing out that its not as easy as us 'keyboard warriors' think. Just gotta look at our weather conditions for a start. Baking hot yesterday and its pouring today! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
