From heats 10 to 15, which is 6 heats, Erik Riss rode in 5 of them, only missing heat 14. A remarkable feat of fitness ! And Erik Riss rode the Green as though it was his home track! One of the limited highlights from the Stars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Call me wolfie Posted September 3, 2019 Report Share Posted September 3, 2019 2 hours ago, NeilWatson said: Peterborough press release this morning: PETERBOROUGH'S final meeting of a difficult season will take place at the East of England Arena on a rare Tuesday night. The Crendon Panthers have finally agreed a date with play-off chasing Wolverhampton for Tuesday September 17. As with all remaining home meetings - starting with Belle Vue this Thursday - Carl Johnson's side can have a major say on the play-off race. "It's been tough," said Johnson. "But now we have our final date in place we can focus on getting the best out of what we have. "We want to see the fans backing the team, backing the club and showing what the sport means to them at Peterborough." Swindon, who are aiming to finish top, are the visitors next Monday, September 9, before the Wolves fixture. That's good news that a date has finally been agreed, a bit of a strange one though, Wolves will probably be without Jacob Thorssell if Dackarna make it to the Swedish playoff final, the semi final is today and next Tuesday so I imagine the final would be Tuesday 17th and 24th Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, he jarred his back again in his second race, he's not fit ....... some tracks are easier to ride than others when you're not fit .........

Tighter tracks will be much harder to ride with back or arm injuries. I think people are expecting too much from the lad right now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s had some pretty horrible crashes this year, hopefully he has a bit more luck in 2020 after a restful winter. Allitt also said that Cook is in a bad way and was withdrawn by the paramedic. MPT has an ankle injury. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However in truth his career has progressed further on the world stage. Im sure like the majority of top riders the UK is a low priority, which makes Doyle a real pleasure to have in the top flight. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think he’s a rider who has ever gone through the motions.....would be easy for him to cry off but if guests are virtually impossible to book and he doesn’t want to let his club down then he will ride. My main concern for him is the World U21s as it’s his last go this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Call me wolfie Posted September 3, 2019 Report Share Posted September 3, 2019 By his own admission on Saturday, he shouldn't be riding anywhere. Very foolish imo. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its selfish and I suspect there is more going on than on the face of it. Perhaps that's because it could mean a 7 day ban. Nicholls has received a ban of 7 days for pulling out of the meeting with a back injury. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
