(correct me if wrong) Does anyone know the reason why Kyle has never ridden a season at Belle Vue in the top layer. Did he have a fall out in his younger days with the Belle Vue management. Seems odd as he is a local boy to Belle Vue I like his all action style but think around Belle Vue you need to be smooth, and get your wheels in line early, just watch Bewley to see what I mean. and weigh about 6 stone! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TTT Posted December 2, 2022 Report Share Posted December 2, 2022 Very powerful 1-5 and a high scoring reserve is the perfect combo. Impressive side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It might be quite interesting to know the weights of the riders, Sam Masters always complains of the weight differences when he rides Belle Vue. Who do folks think is the heaviest rider, and is it sometimes an advantage to be heavier or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks very strong on paper and hopefully will be on track Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is of course a minimum weight for the bike but why I've no idea when no account of the rider is made. Perhaps it should be a rider + bike weight minimum and a bit like jockeys those thinner riders then wear body packs. It would certainly stop those sorts of complaints/theories if it was proven to not make much difference. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They had to pick in reverse order of the league table (although Belle Vue were moved to last pick as reigning champions even though they weren't actually top of the table). So the order of choice was Leicester, Peterborough, King's Lynn, Wolverhampton, Ipswich, Sheffield, Belle Vue. They had to declare who they wanted so that the rest would know who was left, so really only Belle Vue can keep their choice a secret.

Kyle always gives 100%, he always did for Wolves, it's when he tries to give 110% that worries me, which he often does. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
