One of the beat & most exciting rider's to ever grace the sport. No shame for Nicki P to feel.

I remember a quality rider being quoted as saying. “ the one thing you do not do is try and go round Nicki Pedersen “

Pedersen would see a gap and go for it irrespective of any consequences of a possible crash as the gap would be regarded as too risky by most riders.

Roman Matousek a complete nutter, No one else comes close

I might of posted this before but my first and only encounter with Roman was at Sheffield, I was at no7  I think for Oxford ? in as a guest and it was at the start of my career,I remember him staring at me over the pits, I was a nobody but I guess at that point he doesn’t know that,he just sees me a new threat,he just kept looking which was intimidating as I knew exactly who he was and his reputation,think it was in my second ride I was off gate one and him off gate 2, as soon as the tapes went up he just turned left putting me on the grass, I guess looking back he was just stamping his mark on me so as not to go near him not that I was at that level, when I heard of his mysterious death I imagined in my head that he was in some sort of fight on his own against 300 men in some foreign war and giving a good account of himself too, certainly a character and not too bad on a bike either

In general I’ve had riders who have knocked me off or shut the door or have been ruthless but it’s the nature of the game, I can’t say anyone was dangerous, there are some who ride above their talent levels and tend to crash a lot but they are not intentionally dangerous

You're the only one creating ridiculous topics all over this Forum.

I agree, he's only been registered on the forum  5 minutes yet he's posting like he's been on here for years. Probably yet another with more than one nom de plume.🙂

That's the thing about Roman,he was a good (but very hard!) rider when he was fully focused.

People have mentioned Nicki,but wasn't his brother Ronnie just as robust?

About time that you got rid of your bully boy tactics and stop coming onto the topic where others have posted their riders.

So you got to be on here how long then to be able to create threads. Not a problem with the mods. Just get a life and don’t post on here anymore if your that hostile

That's not a very nice way to talk about a long standing and valued member of the forum.
