Ben91 1,743 Posted August 28, 2010 Well the heavens have just opened here in Hoddesdon and rivers are running down the road. I'm still at home but will leave shortly to see whats happening. Its chucking it down. Don't know what part of Hoddesdon you are in but there were no rivers running down the roads... Meeting was very good, wouldn't have felt short changed if I'd paid to go tonight. Buzz Burrows is always highly entertaining, wonder whether he'd fancy being the Conras old hand next year?

Rteyp 6 Posted August 28, 2010 Yeah a good meeting and result, thank heavens for Evans and Lee had a good night too. I'm in the Broxbourne part of Hoddesdaon , as soon as I reached Hoodesdon blue sky - was very heavy here though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
davidba 3 Posted August 28, 2010 Really good stuff i thought. One classic round the outside leg trailing win from Buzz, good stuff too from Steve Worrall. Marc and Joe had good returns from injury, Evans was a different man from when i last saw him at Bournemouth and congrats to Lee Strudwick, great performance.Another fine advert for NL racing.

I see we did have some heavy showers, you must have had the worst of it Rye v Scunthorpe always seems to be a cracking meeting whatever venue competition.

waco 1,026 Posted August 28, 2010 I see we did have some heavy showers, you must have had the worst of it Rye v Scunthorpe always seems to be a cracking meeting whatever venue competition. Good meeting with incidents and some great passes..Cobras had strength in depth tonight except for the unlucky Tom Stokes who tried really hard before a hand injury put him out of the meeting..Marc and Joe did well on their comebacks and Lee was back on form..Barry Evans was an excellent guest .and David and Shane chipped in with more than usefull points...For the visitors Buzz Burrows was his usuall entertaining self,backed by Steven Worrel and Ashly Birks...Mondays match will be tougher,,on paper at least,the I.O.W have been in good form lately....

June 203 Posted August 29, 2010 Good to hear that our youngsters put in what sounds like a decent performance......A first at Rye for some of the lads I think, and the team being without Benji, don't suppose the lads can complain. What can you say about Buzz.....he's the best, Isn't he? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
refereerick 253 Posted August 29, 2010 Good meeting and cracking result for Rye. Good to see Joe Jacobs back on a bike and looking his old self after a tentative first ride. Barry was Barry, great rider at NL level and a real team man. Luke was fast all night and everyone bar the unlucky Stokes chiped in with good scores. For the visitors Buzz looked good and so did Steve Worrall, and I was very impressed with Ashley Birks, one to watch! All in all a good meeting Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

An OK meeting but considering the weather it was good, impressed with the Worrall brothers and Birks scored some important points not to mention Burrows 4th bend pass, Jacobs and Owen looked fast back from injury but tomorrow's meeting will be harder, although conditions maybe easier...

Glenn 26 Posted August 29, 2010 Nice too that I didnt take half the track home with me. Natural watering seems to work best at Rye as it is way too dry and dusty for the majority meetings - especially the 2pm verieties. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
