Cubsforever 16 Posted September 19, 2016 If " Freeman passed them at the very end " how come it was a 5-1 to the Dukes? You been drinking again Tsunami? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I said 'pressed' them not passed them. Another lap and IMO he would have caught one of them. There was 3 good 5-1 races from the 125's, all decided by the gate.

Thats what made the 5-1's still exciting and worth watching Steve. The two Dukes riders are vastly more experienced decent riders, but Archie kept plugging away for that one opportunity to split them and he nearly did in two races. A bit like watching a highly entertaining 0-0 in football. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
