Watching cars on Hillsborough Road, raining so heavily only 1 in 3 has wipers on. So that's all that Sheffield can offer you as "fun" arnie? When it gets darker you will get joined by a few locals having a disco, dancing under the traffic lights as they change colour... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
szkocjasid Posted August 18, 2022 Report Share Posted August 18, 2022 On 8/17/2022 at 11:39 AM, Roger Jacobs said: It's in the Regulations: 016.1.1 Qualifying Criteria 2 riders from the top 4 by MA from the green sheets of the month prior to the event will determine the Pair for each Team, with the Rising Star being the reserve. No updates have been published. That makes no sense, why use a previous month's averages for the Pairs? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The whippet tickling was cancelled too. Lovely morning in Sheffield, not a cloud in the sky. Onwards to look at the rain in Glasgow now. Hopefully a suitable rearranged date is found, regardless of the rights and wrongs of which riders are chosen, the concept behind the tournament seems sound enough. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The concept of the BSPA’s ideas are often sound - it’s the actual product delivered that invariably doesn’t match the concept … 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it’s the heavy rain at start time that will put paid to this. We're getting less rain now than they predicted Saturday so I suppose it can change again. Don’t want a showcase event on a rubbish track. I can feel the last 2 rounds not happening and the competition will fade away with not a mention of it in the future. Never to be seen again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
