  1. 1: 58.78 2: 59.79 3: 59.68 4: 59.51 5: 59.83 6: 60.89
  2. Good effort with the times, but have corrected them to 2 decimal places as we have the technology
  3. 1: 58.48 2: 58.37 3: 58.25 4: 57.87 5: 58.92 6: 58.42 7: 58.16 8: 58.32 9: 59.35 10: 59.72 11: 58.98 12: 60.09 13: 60.37 14: 59.85 15: 59.08 16: 59.84 17: 59.45 18: 59.99 19: 60.39 20: 60.11 Semi: 60.22 Final: unknown
  4. I only know the ages of some of the riders in the 1991 meeting... Lamb was 24, Little 18, McLusky 26, McKinna 30, Grieves 16, Coleman 21, McDonald 16 The 1986 riders were all juniors, although Rizzo made a few appearances for Berwick & Edinburgh in the 80s but with limited success - as far as I know all five were Scottish.
  5. Not quite... Michael Lowrie won the Scottish Under-21 title on 13 September at Powderhall (Edinburgh) which was part of the Scottish Individual Riders Championship, won by Scott Lamb, with James Grieves winning the Under-18 title. The Junior Championship was held at Shawfield on 13 Oct 1991 (points scored carried into the final - I don't have the race times) Heat 1: Grieves, Fraser Smith, Paul Taylor, Raymond Fosbury Heat 2: Stuart Coleman, Wayne Park, Stuart Crome (retired), Stewart McDonald (fell excluded) Heat 3: Coleman, Grieves, Fosbury, Crome Heat 4: Smith, Park, Taylor (only 3 riders) Final: Grieves, Coleman, Smith, Park (fell remounted) As Grieves & Coleman both scored 8 points, a race-off was needed, which Grieves won.
  6. 11 Oct 1992 Heat 1: James Grieves, Paul Taylor, Muir Templeton, Wayne Park (fell rem) 71.0s Heat 2: Stewart McDonald, Stuart Coleman, Grant Blackie, Raymond Fosbury (fell) 72.0s Final: Grieves, McDonald, Coleman, Taylor 69.8s 8 Oct 1995 Heat 1: Paul Taylor, Brian Mercer, Stewart McDonald (fell) 71.8s (only 3 riders) Heat2: Barry Campbell, Neil Hewitt, Paul McManus 70.2s ((only 3 riders) Final: Hewitt, Campbell, Taylor, Mercer 69.8s
  7. 1: 56.61, 2: 58.52, 3: 57.69, 4: 58.27, 5: 57.46, 6: 59.2, 7: 59.06, 8: 59.11, 9: 58.82, 10: 58.22, 11: 59.27, 12: 59.42, 13: 58.75, 14: 60.23, 15: 60.11, 16: 60.26, 17: 60.06, 18: 60.83, 19: 59.98, 20: 60.03, 21: 59.89, 22: 60.13 An earlier post stated times were 2 to 4 seconds slower than a Glasgow fixture at Ashfield but that's not the case as the average heat times for the two previous meetings were 58.79s (Birmingham) and 58.64s (Edinburgh) with last night's being 59.17s
  8. 1: 57, 2: 57.67, 3: 57.24, 4: 57.38, 5: 58.11, 6: 58.36, 7: 58.66, 8: 58.93, 9: 58.75, 10: 59.01, 11: 58.44, 12: 59.35, 13: 58.43, 14: 59.58, 15: 58.67
  9. 1: 57.28, 2: 57.96, 3: 58.54, 4: 58.28, 5: 58.23, 6: 58.79, 7: 58.9, 8: no time - race awarded, 9: 58.09, 10: 58.55, 11: 58.07, 12: 59.48, 13: 59.04, 14: 59.47, 15: 58.5
  10. Heat 14 would have been Brennan, Harris, Lampart & Janowski, with Bewley, Lambert, Zmarzlik & Musielak in Heat 15
  11. You're entitled to your opinion of course, but the time quoted is correct
  12. No result / time announced as the referee didn't declare it, despite the SGB website showing 3a3 - the fact the starting marshals made a cod of the flags and three riders completed, I won't say raced, five laps, is neither here nor there... Thompson's time was 60.96s
  13. 1: 56.74; 3: 56.56; 5: 57.8; 11: 58.41; 16: 56.83; 18: 58.98; 20: 59.69 but don't have the time for the run-off. Heat 16 seems v.fast but that's what was announced
