The Brummies have been taken over by the sheep rustlers. The Birmingham Britmen perhaps? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fubar 68 Posted April 20, 2018 .....and I don't like to appear negative but there are a couple of spots of rain showing over Gloomy Road at 7 p.m. tomorrow on the latest weather map. Argh.................. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest GiveusaB Posted April 20, 2018 Dave Wallinger would have been my choice of guest ....may be that's an omen with the inclusion of Buxton in the team name? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fubar 68 Posted April 20, 2018 Thunder and lightning now shown over Gloomy Road on Saturday night! At most places you would be worried about the power getting knocked out but fortunately, Gloomy Road has it's own generator............... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DIABOLICAL.........................Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr Yes Saturday is their alternative day. Have had a fair few on a Saturday. Jordan was good around Stoke on previous visits. Could be a little race rusty with all of our meetings being off so far this year but I know he's been practicing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WalterPlinge 657 Posted April 21, 2018 It looks like the sun has proven to strong to allow tonight's meeting to be rained off, and we're edging towards start time. So instead, we'll have to play "Guess what time the generator fails / the airfence deflates / or the meeting is abandoned for other reasons" 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fubar 68 Posted April 21, 2018 Sadly, Plingy, Stoke weren't able to fall back on any of those escape plans and therefore got well and truly hammered. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
uk_martin 1,606 Posted April 21, 2018 I think that Leon Flint has earned himself a nice cold pint of Milk tonight. Heck, someone might even allow him a fizzy drink. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Brummie Kev 519 Posted April 21, 2018 (edited) I decided at the last minute to make the journey up after finishing work and I'm so glad I did, what a great result! Mitchell was unbeatable tonight as he was when I last saw him ride against Coventry, hes a rider who's very hard to beat at this level. Best I've seen Tom ride in a while and it wasn't from always from the tapes, he looked very quick. The real star for me was young Leon, what a find he is!. Pretty much 2 months to the day since he turned 15 and in his first competitive meeting he scores paid max and beats heatleaders like Shuttleworth and Atkin. You would never think he was so young when you see how mature and assured he is on the bike. Hope its the first of many big scores in Brummies colours. Arran gave it everything and even gated in the one heat, no complaints for all the efforts he showed tonight and I hope he is okay after his fall. Layne and Callum struggled for the most part but credit where its due with Callum with his last ride. Thank you Jordan for guesting and putting in a solid performance Nice touch to see the riders and Lawrence come out to applaud all of us that made the trip at the end.

jrs 3,290 Posted April 22, 2018 For a fifteen yet old Leon is well known for his ability and his experience from European racing is almost certainly helping him enormously. It will be brilliant if he can build on this fine start and who knows what stage he will have reached by the end of the season. Heat leader with any luck ! Keep nurturing him down in Brum and hopefully he will truly develop into a man who will reach the top, the people of Berwick and the borders have great faith in him.
