semion 2,192 Posted May 27, 2018 Can’t see Rye running away with this one but still good enough at Hoddesdon to take the victory over a depleted Lynn team. When is NKI going on for his op, and is he having it done over here ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bagpuss 10,765 Posted May 27, 2018 From what it says in the SS he's going to have intensive physio rather than an op. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rocket007 101 Posted May 27, 2018 If NKI can ride in the GP's, then he can ride at Rye on Monday. If not, only a NL guest facility should be available. It makes a mockery of the sport when riders can pick and choose their meetings and clubs still get a facility for them. Surely if NKI is only having physio, then he can wait another day.

I agree, physio is rather different to surgery. At the same time it does depend also on the type of physio as it can be debilitating after a session or 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

phillipsr 2,053 Posted May 27, 2018 NKI should be banned for 28 days and a NL rider should be in instead of R/R Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bagpuss 10,765 Posted May 27, 2018 He's taking a fortnight out to get his shoulder sorted and missing a Swedish fixture and the SON as well as the UK in that time, don't see the issue personally. At least he's not picking and choosing from week to week like Pedersen.. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rocket007 101 Posted May 27, 2018 If it's NKI choice to take time out, then no facility should be available. Obviously the injury isn't that bad to stop him riding in the GP's. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bagpuss 10,765 Posted May 27, 2018 Great idea, I'm sure a three pointer at number one will have the punters flocking through the turnstyles. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mattfordfan 286 Posted May 28, 2018 NL guest surely. Iversen rode in the GP and in Poland. No facility. But then again this is Buster Chapman we're talking about. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
semion 2,192 Posted May 28, 2018 If the guy produces a Doc’s certificate as being unfit to ride. Job done. Some people just like to try and create a 541t storm. Nothing to see here, move on. I saw both Harris and Kerr both underachieved at home for Glasgow yesterday. Bike probs or running into a patch of poor form ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
g13webb 4,254 Posted May 28, 2018 I'm all for rules and regulations that keep the sport operating correctly, but common sense must come into any equation . As long as the club is not seen to be bettering itself, then i have no issues with clubs using a facility to cover unfortunate instances. Once the season starts, riders have little space available to organise anything. if , like in this case, he needs an off period, to recuperate and recover from injury, then i see nothing wrong. Rules were not made for genuine people, they were incorporated because of people constantly pulling a fast one. It this case Niels is one of the genuine people and doing no wrong.... I feel sorry that Rye House fans not being able to watch Niels race, but they have the advantage of facing a weakened team with a better chance of success. But some people are never happy... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
