His van was trashed inside. He pretty much has 3 bikes and that's it. No tools, spares or racing equipment. I'm sure he'll be back this week

Just for info, my original post was one of irony as a response to Cresent Girls post who appeared to see no issue in Kinsley riding.

Surprised by this, presumed last night was his last meeting, a bit anticlimactic really, he didn’t put any effort in last night really, I presumed playing it safe to get out of the sport alive

I wouldn't say he didn't put in effort. More he went early on every race, impeding himself and realised quickly if you didn't make the gate you were screwed

Missed the gate due to trying to jump it. Track was a little too grippy for any passing so he had no chance anyway!

So he missed the gate… He got 2 points, both times the other rider didn’t finish… He was playing it safe for god sake:t:Was miles quicker than Bailey, who was riding mid track, 1 simple blast and he’d of been round him, but hugged the curb because he didn’t want to fall off in his last meeting, which was understandable to me, but when he’s taking guest bookings afterwards, it’s not

1 simple blast that no other managed all night? There wasn't a single pass the entire meeting...

Have you forgot 1st bend &2nd bend sort outs counts as passing at Berwick.:rolleyes:;)

Seems to count at most tracks now unfortunately.

Reading updates most passes listed are there or on back straight (Birmingham and Scunthorpe were the same last week when I last checked the updates site).

Therein lies the problem after bend 2 lap 1 very rare passing track alterations have made barely if any difference.

Fair play and credit to the Promotion for making the track alterations ,but it has make little difference to the racing.IMO.The riders might find it better regarding the entrance and exit to bends though.

One metre, was never going to make a difference. It needed 5 metre's at least and the squareness of the corners taking off. The trouble is that would severely harm the football pitch.
