Steve Shovlar 10,439 Posted November 3, 2016 From the joys of trying to get to Lakeside on a Friday night to the joys of battling the M5 on a Friday night Easy from Poole. Don't go near the M5. Cut straight across country and over the top of the M5 at the Somerset turnoff. Might get stuck behind a tractor but that's about it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Might get stuck behind a tractor but that's about it. Depends where your going from Steve. For us yes for those coming down the M5- M 6 no..Me personally i go straight up the M5 from the devon border.

idh 209 Posted November 3, 2016 A good addition to the top flight. Given that both Swindon and Somerset shared half the same team I would guess that will be interesting if wanted by both. Swindon borrowed a few riders Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SomersetBlue 212 Posted November 4, 2016 Well after a lot of thought about the team here goes: Keep majority of riders from last season but lose Wajtknecht who isn't 'premiership' ready and I think Grajczonek who I think wants a smaller track. Tungate hopefully will be back fingers crossed. Jake Allen and Brad Wilson Dean at reserve with Starke and Wright at 2 and 4. Perhaps Jack Holder would be a good bet. Bomber Harris seems likely to add top tier heat leader status. 1. Harris 2. Wright 3. Holder 4. Starke 5. Tungate 6. Allen 7. Wilson Dean Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

From the joys of trying to get to Lakeside on a Friday night to the joys of battling the M5 on a Friday night I've asked this question before, but with no reply from anyone...'why do Somerset race on a Friday night?' Is there a reason, or a reason why they cannot race on any other evening? Friday evenings, are the worst possible time of the week to negotiate getting to Somerset's track.

Friday evenings, are the worst possible time of the week to negotiate getting to Somerset's track. Not sure where you live Gresham, but do you have to use the M5? I live near Chippenham and never ever use the M4 or M5 to get to the OTA every Friday. Frome, Shepton Mallet, Wells, Wedmore, Mark.....not a traffic jam in sight. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
