Didn’t get one of his brilliant rides all season. was never his fault though. Track or set ups So r/r would be your choice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a result, R/R is on a mandatory 7 day concussion break. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeneralMelchett Posted September 19, 2023 Report Share Posted September 19, 2023 (edited) Whilst we may never know if Bomber had been any good or not - what you never discount is even at his age / stage of his career he always to pull out some big scores. I kind of glad the weather won last night, id decided not to travel anyway - next week may give Doyley the chance to be fit how knows - I'd rather see him ride if he is fit lets hope he is.

Call me wolfie Posted September 19, 2023 Report Share Posted September 19, 2023 I see Freddy Hodder has been named as a no 8 for BV, makes me think Norick may not be 100% fit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Blödorn isn't fit the Aces can use a guest. Including Hodder is primarily a gesture to enable him to experience the pits and atmosphere during an Elite meeting. If, unfortunately, the Aces are short of riders during the meeting, he might get an R/R ride.

No I expect most fans dont even know who their number 8 is and very few teams turn up with a number 8 even if they are using r/r and now you can use irr . Hodder is only their for the experience , Lemon won't use him unless you have the unfortunate scenario of a injury to a reserve and if he didn't ride you would only have 3 riders. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
old bob at herne bay Posted September 20, 2023 Report Share Posted September 20, 2023 There was a time when you had to name a number 8 when using R/R. Many instances recently where teams usingR/R have suffered further injuries in a meeting and been forced to track only one rider in a race. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
