He can’t be bothered with them usually and he makes no secret of that. A few clubs he’s ridden for though have insisted he turns up or else. Ipswich was one of them.

Racin Jason 72 Posted March 23 Report Share Posted March 23 Don’t think I’ve ever known a press and practice with two missing riders before. Reading Racers in the 80s often had 6 and would choose the number 7 at press and practice depending on who impressed most on the day. out of the 5 who were present there seemed to be 3 different variations of race suit Boughens was a lot darker blue than the rest and Harris and cooks suit used different blues compared to klint and iversen. Phil Morris is trying to get the sport to look and be more professional. He must be in despair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The whole idea of press day in particular is to get the team photos done and promote the bloody sport! Can’t do that if riders don’t bother turning up 🙄 Pathetic. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard that the Lynn race suits are slightly different colour because they are made by 2 different brands, due to riders personal contracts with those brands 👍🏻 so that’s why the blues aren’t identical… Klindt and NKI use the same brand (hense why theirs are the same) and the other 5 use a second different brand Edited Sunday at 02:48 PM by SamKM91 Wrong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe colours and shades have different codes which are internationally recognised nowadays Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every colour & shad has a code so you can have identical colour matching. Possibly costs a little more but worth it for the overall look.

So what if he doesn't like doing them, it's his job. my theory with richard over the years is that he wouldnt get paid for a p&p and would lose a days work (believe hes a plasterer) not saying its right/acceptable at all as they should all be there as ive said the rumour was that he and jan were both in poland which begs the question why p&p was friday not ideal but at least they were at oxford yesterday which is far more important and wasnt the case last year (not just lynn either) Edited Monday at 09:43 AM by SaddlebowRoad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
