Nothing wrong with this track.

Milik & Thomsen made individual mistakes and have taken themselves out of the meeting.

Of course it's the track, 4 experienced riders crashed and injured on it today.

from what i saw the guy in front of thomsen shut off going in causing a t to straighten up but that's what happens when you put inexperienced  reserves in a field of top riders and i am not being disrespectful,just an honest opinion.

I didn't see anything unusual in front of him, and it was Connor Bailey who is as fast as anyone around Ashfield this year.

Maybe one of them is a St Johns vehicle and they transferred to a proper one.

Possibly. They may have called for an ambulance to come to the stadium so that the other can stay there.

I'm struggling to work out what's wrong with the track if anything, it's nice and wide, plenty of room entering and exiting the bends and it's smooth with just enough dirt on it. The crashes have all appeared to be rider error to me.

You can't just ride it flat out everywhere, you have to think and respect it.

Why is that mascot hanging around the ambulances like a tool, he should be circulating and entertaining the kids, morbid tosser.  As if Anders wants to see that buffoon as he drifts in and out of consciousness, he'll think he's hallucinating.

When you go in straight legged a spiral fracture can occur very easily...

Hope it isnt that bad...

That air fence is in name only judging by the impact ..

Unlikely to be a spiral fracture, looked a very obvious dislocation at the ankle when he lifted up his leg. Usually that comes with a lower Tib/FIb fracture. Extremely painful injury.

I reckon the stream will work out pretty cheap in the end. £1 an hour I reckon

I am going to contact the credit card company and tell them I didnt get what I paid for..

If they challenge me I will make them watch the meeting via on demand...

When they have sat through it I reckon I will get thirty quid back never mind fifteen.. :D

They just lack UK experience and they're paying the price for it. 

Standings currently being dominated by riders with bags of UK experience says it all really while those with limited or no UK experience are being tailed well off.
