1 valve 558 Posted March 15, 2017 It sounds like a few clubs are going all out to make sure the Bees keep riding this season. It would be great news if every club would find track time for them. Even a few meetings against the Premier league, just as long as it keeps the Bees team in the limelight. To big a name to lose to the sport. The last thing they need is to be out on a limb for 20 years are the Lions where. It would be good as you suggest. but I think more so for the fans of the Bees than the riders who will be fixed up with other clubs - I just hope the teams they put out will be competitive and the fans stay united in supporting their "on the road team" by turning up at the tracks otherwise the concept will soon wane and fade away Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mdmc82 2,878 Posted March 15, 2017 (edited) Just announced. Home v Bees on 13th May East Midlands Bowl.Shame there's no Garrity for this. Due to clashes with Redcar, Howarth replaces him. Harris rides in place of K Bjerre Edited March 15, 2017 by mdmc82 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gemini 4,894 Posted March 15, 2017 Same night as round two of the GP's...how will this effect attendance I wonder? Not too much I wouldn't think. Leicester have often ridden on GP nights and fans just record it to watch later. Also Coventry supporters will be eager to see their team ride anywhere this season so there should be a good number there. More of a problem is who do I support and which scarf to wear. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shirl 165 Posted March 16, 2017 But more critically it clashes with the Eurovision Song contest For this reason I definitely won't be able to make it as its one of the highlights of the year Will it be the Brotherhood of Man,Bucks Fizz or Johnny Logan Saying that never have liked Bucks Fizz too much orange juice Let's hope we can all get there whoever is riding and show our support for the bees!!
