Lets hope it’s a success tonight and speedway is the winner. Also confirms its still loose and not fully bedded in and that he doesn't mind the bumps it makes it more fun. As long as its safe its ok but i fear a fair number of fallers tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A totally different mindset when it comes to bumpy tracks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He did ride for Poole so is quite use to that.Most of the Poole riders should be use to riding bumps so this could play into their hands 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Shovlar Posted April 18, 2019 Report Share Posted April 18, 2019 It has now been decided to move the inside line out a few feet as the bend is very spongy and could cause a rider to straighten and hit others. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
