Had a Bonnie 650 many years ago though, The point about Jack Smith is nobody could do worse could they. Even if his replacement came last every time it wouldn't be any different but he may even a get a point or two. I've ridden big road bikes for many years and still do. I had a go on a friends speedway bike on a big field ...Bloody hell . About a 3rd of the power, but no brakes or suspension, as you know. The arse breaks away and I shut off and got a speed wobble and no fences or riders to hit either... Arse nipped up...And to think I wanted to be a speedway rider when I first went aged 8 lol. All i'm saying is give the guys a bit of respect. Not a push bike will score more comment Edited August 25, 2018 by Bald Bloke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnno4 Posted August 24, 2018 Report Share Posted August 24, 2018 Many years ago perhaps before your time there was cycle speedway run on more or less the same way as real speedway. The boys were pretty fast and came off the same way, My comment was sardonic, and my main point was we couldn't do any worse with another rider, last is last.

ZagarRacing Posted August 25, 2018 Report Share Posted August 25, 2018 Keep lowering those averages boys. I’d even have Nick Morris back on that average. From 1st September Troy Batchelor 7.96 Nick Morris 6.92 Tobiasz Musielak 6.61 Adam Ellis 6.49 David Bellego 6.00 Zach Wajtknecht 4.29 Jack Smith 2.00 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A ORLOV Posted August 26, 2018 Report Share Posted August 26, 2018 If Nick is unable to ride I wonder if J Holder is free rather than use r/r. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pirates Of Poole Posted August 26, 2018 Report Share Posted August 26, 2018 Think it could be closer than people think, Swindon always up their game when we are in town. 4 points either way for me, will depend if Nick is fit to ride and of course all Poole riders come through the morning meeting with no issues.

I think DC2( think that's right) was the worst..Only banter at the end of the day though. If Morris isn't able to ride, I hope Swindon, will pay Holder the money.. Could make for a good meeting.

Steve Shovlar Posted August 26, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 26, 2018 What is Poole’s record at Swindon? Answer is, not very good. We tend to implode around heat 10 and come away losing by 8. It will probably be the same tomorrow night though there is not too much playing on it. As long as we pick up something tomorrow from the 2 meetings the playoffs are done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The nearer the play offs, the worse you get. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had bragging rights in the first couple of months but definitely with them now. All good fun though. Love a bit of rivalry! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
