Bitza Posted October 17 Report Share Posted October 17 VF big step up this evening, somebody's been having a word in his ear I'm thinking, and to his credit he's been taking notice. Hold that thought VF and the future looks good. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That style he had as well is undoubtedly the worst style I have ever seen on a bike. Stuck his left leg out as far as he could, could never work out whether it was to block anyone trying to go underneath him or just a horrible style or both. Yes his sticky out leg going into the corner was often his downfall. With that style he had to keep balance using his leg out and often when it lost traction he was heading for the fence and often taking other riders with him. Other crashes were when he just rode into other riders who got out of control and used the safety fence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And remind me, your experience of sharing a race track with dangerous riders is what exactly? Getting hit by shale from the terraces doesn’t count. I’ve had personal experience of it, so apologies if 1) it bothers me a little more than you, and 2) I don’t take what you think seriously.

Strange that Middlo and his team mates don't have issues with Vinnie. I'm sure Ben Cook would have passed on any concerns to Dan Bewley if there were any..
