Did anyone jot down the riding order for the CLRC at Redcar. Never thought when they were doing the live draw to write it down, and currently there is no replay to get the draw from. Thanks in advance for any help

Rory is number 1.

Possibly the 2 Birmingham riders at 2 and 3. (Sedgeman at 2 and bachelor at 3).

I thought Rory was number 1 also but he is number 9. He meets Scott Nicholls, Ben Basso and Craig Cook in his first race (Berwick website).

It's undoubtedly a good line up. 

It's also a truly shocking indictment and proof positive of the terminal decline in UK speedway that the average age must be around 35.

This is the second tier 

Where are the breakthrough British riders. Clearly they are either not good enough or opportunities are stunted by PL riders, factually both reasons.

13 of them ride in the so -called 1st tier

Indeed. 

There in lies the root cause. 

Doubling up or factually down to create income post the Sky money glut of 20 years ago. 

That money dwindled so double down created a false fake paradise as a generation matured. 

If you create a system then you can't blame those who exploit it. 

Speedway has to go 2 tier being as close as it can to professional full time and semi professional part time. Accepting that it's an 8 month season in Europe to deliver for the full time or a 6 month season in UK to deliver for the part time. 

No doubling up must be enforced other than age limited to say 23 or 24. 

Strict pay rules.

Kyle Howarth (29) is the youngest Brit in the field. And only Pickering (26) and Basso (22) are younger.

That's how it started and 2 riders shared a reserve position, until the Aussies started moaning about how it wasn't fair on them and now it is a free for all!

As far as i know,  non of them are men of colour or women or identify only as a toilet brush. Maybe wanting to be part of modern society we should be  joining in more? :D

 Troy Batchelor? surely you must have to complete more than 4 meetings in the championship to qualify.

Presumably Morris was in and rather than give next in line  (flint or Allen as their clubs have one representative) they've let Birmingham use bachelor. Be far better with one of the others mentioned imo
