topsoil Posted March 30, 2019 Report Share Posted March 30, 2019 Good first meeting, for an individual. Track was nice and smooth, with a bit of dirt round the banking after a few races. Inside line got used to good effect on the third / fourth bends early on. Some impressive rides by Doolan, Spud, Leon and Coty at different times in the meeting. Theo Pijper surely won't take long to get a team spot somewhere. Jye did really well to stay on after his coming together with Nico Covatti, looked destined for the safety fence. Likes the new system with the season pass, no queueing, straight in. Meeting went at a decent pace. Only down side was the injury to Danny Ayres. It's good to be back. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shadders Posted March 30, 2019 Report Share Posted March 30, 2019 (edited) Topsoil summed up most of what I was going to post. Decent meeting to be fair with some good close racing. Not as cold as it’s been for season openers, but they did a decent job in hurrying it along after the injuries in heat 12. Good to see the tannoy on bend three has been adjusted so we can actually hear announcements. Team looks solid throughout, but the real tests are yet to come.

Meetings like testimonials, or even the BenFund are like that for riders, yes. But meetings like Sheffield's opener, the Belle Vue thing this Saturday and yes, the Bordernapolis are earners -- and no professional, self-employed rider is going to go out and mess about if it means he's passing up good money. Seven races at Berwick will mean up to something like £1K for the big scorers. You can blow off a lot of cobwebs with a grand! So we can take it Kev, Spud, NBJ, Stormy earned "something like £1K" last night what a way to start the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSC67 Posted March 31, 2019 Report Share Posted March 31, 2019 Judging by some of the racing , last night was more than a blowing the winter cobwebs off event . Some decent action and fairly consistent times with all of the Bandits riders picking up at least one win . The serious stuff starts next week .

screm Posted March 31, 2019 Report Share Posted March 31, 2019 Enjoyed last night, decent enough racing infront of what seemed to be a decent crowd. All seven Berwick showed up well with Coty Garcia catching the eye the most, hopefully Danny Ayres will be ok after his crash while Ty Proctor might as well have stayed at home. Season ticket collected before hand, looking at the list of names on the season ticket list it looks like many have taking up the clubs offer which can only be good news. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blatant plug alert.... and continues to be good news as, with programmes (which are included in the price) now costing £3 buying a standard pass at £229 represents a saving of £41 over the remaining 14 meetings and for those aged 65 and over, disabled or students (ID proof needed for these three) a saving of £45.
