Birmingha V Kings Lynn Wed 10th May


Recommended Posts

With Birmingham carrying two passengers, having a "senior" rider in his first meeting, and having other riders prone to falling off when least wanted, I think that claims about Kings Lynn's demise into obscurity may be greatly exagerated.

Good fixture for Liam Carr to find his feet and likewise for Kyle Roberts and Bickley. Other than that, there's not much else to say!

I agree with roberts and leek likely to take 4 rides each kings lynn will be scoring 30+

BICKLEY??? I missed that. Who's he riding for? That could change the complexion of the meeting.

the best battles were for 3rd and 4th spot

 

Bacon 3/5 nightmare start then just done whats expected from no1

Roberts 3/5 battled really hard will certainly improve only scored 2 but was competitive later on..

Richings 3/5 solid from the skipper scored as expected really ..

JPB 3.0/5 Standard quality display although slight note hes times weren't that quick

Carr 4.0/5 MOTM awesome debut getting full max won each race by a big distance different class on the night

Leek 1.5/5 Looked well off the pace until a decent last race

cuppitt 3.0/5 great again were gonna miss him when he goes into the main body.

 

Widman had the best meeting ive seen him have down PB

Well done the fans also for showing Roberts and leek there appreciation for battling performancing

As good a debut performance as I have seen anywhere. Seemed to thoroughly enjoy himself and clearly developed a great rapport with both the crowd and with the rest of the team.

 

This meeting was never going to be a classic and it wasn't. I agree with R+Y that Roberts and Leek both worked hard for little reward and that their efforts were appreciated by the crowd.

 

By the way, Tom Bacon still swears that he saw a red light as he was coming away from the tapes in heat one and believed that the race had been stopped - which was why he shut off.

Looked like it to me too. Wouldn't that have resulted in him being excluded for "tape touching"? In the end, he got caught out for rolling at the start, and got nothing for it. As it should be. We'd have moaned as hell had an opponent done that to us and gotten away with it.
