Why don`t people leave the M4 at junc 18 and go past Bath racecourse then via Cheddar gorge and you get to the speedway without hitting the m5

 

if you went that way tonight you wouldnt get to speedway til midnight as its wurzels night at bath

That's even worse...the traffic leaving Junc 18 for Bath is gridlock most days, not just a Friday. There is no fast way of getting to the Oaktree, unless you live south/west of Bristol...I've tried every route. It's a nightmare.

Trowbridge, Frome, Shepton Mallet, Wells, Wedmore, Mark......no traffic for me.

If you can keep him there for the play offs, what a bonus.

That would help, but it is likely he will revert to 1-5 after the meetings with Somerset, what a waste, we could have had him getting up to 21 points per meeting.

I think he'll have the two matches against Somerset at reserve then before getting another average on the 21st, unless they recalculate after last night as he"ll have done 4h, 4a

 

 

I don't think he'll actually ride at reserve. He completed 4H and 4A last night and his new average will be effective seven days after which is next Thursday.

Toby drops to reserve from Monday.

How do you work that out? If you look at the averages not the GSA declarations, it shows his 4 home & away average to be 7.22. That would make it a toss up between him & Bellego for the heat leader spot.

The bspa team positions are shown on the Green Sheets which show Tobi 4.53 and Adam Ellis 4.66 from 7.8.17 so Tobi becomes a reserve as he has the 2nd lowest average above Zach at 3.21. How they calculate them is a different story.

But they don't show in that calculation his 4h/a which he has now achieved & new averages are issued next week when he will be 7.22

That is because the bspa calculate the figures up to certain dates and is a few days behind the Swindon stats, as Matt has said it is likely that at the next calculation date he will be 7.22 and move back into the 1-5 and another rider will be or reserve, probably BWD, which might do him some good.

Congratulations once more to the Rockin' Robins :t:

 

A 10 point win at Lynn without Jason and Zach followed by the seeing off some dubious Lions from Leicester to make it 10 in a row !

 

A special mention to Rosco and his team building this year, Bellego and Musielak have both been been way better than expected whilst Nick, BWD and Zach have all improved significantly. Jason has done his job at No 1, so all we need now is Adam to finally come to the party and there is still time for that :t:

 

BTW...Good luck to Lynn for the rest of the season, a brave move - although everyone tires of whingers eventually..

The latest BSPA averages - Issue 26 - show Musielak on 7.22 effective 10/08/17.

Cannot recall if green sheet dated 4.8.17 was the one looked at earlier today or not and if it was wrong or not. So your statement DunRobin was correct and bspa were either behind or left it off.

What is a surprise is that Adam is below BWD, still that might change before long.

Not bad for a team touted for the wooden spoon.

Only by Cookie, I think most Robins fans thought no chance of top 4 place.

It was Belle Vue, Poole, Wolves, Rye House, Kings Lynn, Swindon. Morra, Dave B., Toby Muesli have been immense. Brad and Adam vast improvement to the April/May side.

What a great run of form for the Robins. I hope they and Rosco win the play-offs in their final full Abbey Stadium season (unless of course in the remotest possibility ever, Poole manage to hang on to 4th place?!) lol.

Final full season at the Abbey lol you been on the beer .
