martinmauger Posted August 30, 2021 Report Share Posted August 30, 2021 (edited) Adding to the chap above's comments : I would have thought when the Poultec sessions take place, based at King's Lynn I beleive, that the track time would be on a circuit prepared for an offical meeting i.e. starting off grippy and possibly a tad damp, then gradually drying out & becoming slick so as to give the riders experience of the changing track conditions, as they would encounter in a proper meeting, and being instructed in the set-up changes required. I've also heard that such training sessions, in Poland for example, the rider coaches & riders themselves are asked how they'd like the tracks prepared so as to gain experience of the different conditions which occur.....

martinmauger Posted August 30, 2021 Report Share Posted August 30, 2021 And good afternoon to you. I was commenting generally, not really about your lad (who is already a bit good !), and he would do well and kick on with the Poultec scheme, but yeh just riding on a slick track young riders won't learn as much as by riding in different conditions. I prob should have prob said that in the first place, not posted in the early hours when quite tired ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IainB Posted September 5, 2021 Report Share Posted September 5, 2021 It's no doubt been discussed elsewhere but does anybody know why GB had no entrants into the WU21 Championship this year? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
