Järf is not interested in doing the full WC series, so he wasn't given a quali slot either. Which in my opinion is the correct move. Shame in the way that he's a TOP15 rider in the world capable of reaching things in his chosen sport... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Conkers 67 Posted January 15, 2016 Out of interest,what is the actual list of British riders mate? The only three I know at the moment are Rob Irvine, Roger Newton and Kevin Rowand. It's Roger who may very well be riding in St. Johann if/when it goes ahead. There's also that Andrew 'Bill' Barrett whom I now nothing about other than what I've read in this thread. As for some of the old riders, I see Graham Halsall most years at Assen, along with Bruce Cribb, Doug Wyer and Reg Wilson who have all worn the Union Flag Bodycolour.

f-s-p 832 Posted January 15, 2016 (edited) Out of interest,what is the actual list of British riders mate? Did some stats early in the week, ain't that rosy in Sweden anymore either even with N. Svensson and Ledström coming through. They've had 2 Isracingserien meetings with around 24 riders. Of them 6 were foreign and Serenius and Fastesson are closer to 70 than 60 years of age... Enlisting for the Finnish final has just opened, hoping to get 16 riders together. In the past 3 years 33 different riders enlisted for the Finnish final.

Ok thanks.I thought Roger Newton had retired,so that boosts the squad a little Did some stats early in the week, ain't that rosy in Sweden anymore either even with N.

Enlisting for the Finnish final has just opened, hoping to get 16 riders together. In the past 3 years 33 different riders enlisted for the Finnish final. Yes and looking at the Russian Championships,it is obvious the numbers even there have fallen quite dramatically,unless a lot f riders didn't bother to enter.What happened to the Blago riders like Tschajka and Baraboshkin etc......
