However I would not endorse any practice that may impact the integrity of the sport. And also I emphasise that Edinburgh would not partake in any underhanded payments to there riders. Was against seeing some of the "sponsors" who appeared last time this happened and would be if it happened again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reckon the average points money must be around £50-£60 mark.Crowd levels barely cover that and general running costs at most Championship tracks.IMO.

Neila Posted November 29, 2022 Report Share Posted November 29, 2022 £90 a point is cheap compared to what some riders were alleged to be on !! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't seen the £90 per point mentioned officially anywhere. The AGM stated 'a limit on guarantees' rather than a curb on actual race points money. £90 per point is certainly under what many heat leaders were on - as well as some 2nd strings!!

Things will be twisted on whatever way they have to be to get the riders they want. Years ago I remember hearing of one rider being on a guaranteed £300 per programmed ride meaning even if he actually only took 3 scoreless rides he was still taking £1200 home. He would have been on points and travel money too so its little wonder if other teams had similar deals many were in financial difficulties. When you hear stories of riders also wanting bikes, spares, vans and accommodation and workshop facilities paid for it would it really does make it an expensive circus. But just who are the clowns? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Schlein can make a comeback, how about Shane Parker? I know he’s over 50 and has had serious heart problems but why let logic get in the way of a BSF post 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
