Tsunami 10,219 Posted May 28, 2019 (edited) Very pleased to get Jacob who I think will be a good replacement for Simon who obviously didn't have the style for Brough. Many were surprised when Jacob didn't get a ride with the Bears both last year and this year. Although his start with the Bears a few years ago didn't work out, he has always impressed when invited to ride in Open meetings and scored well on Friday in a big Redcar Open meeting. He rode well in a Amateur meeting at Redcar on Saturday, winning the top class for 500 cc's, and rode very well in the private practice session at Brough on Sunday afternoon, getting a lot of rides and being one of the last riders at the end. He lives locally now and, being a Dane, will be company for both Tomas and Lasse. I believe he is from Slangerup, which was Jespers home club, so might see Jesper to have words of advice for him. The timing of this move is spot on as Jacob will be at reserve, which will give him an easier run in the Diamonds ranks whilst he is finding his feet. I look forward to a more balanced team now, and hope that others in the team get over their current problems and score the points expected of them. Happy with this signing and team changes.

Could be ok, but as you say he was garbage at Redcar. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
boz 315 Posted May 28, 2019 Pleased to see Jacob get picked up. Looked impressive in first half of the meeting on Friday, as smooth as I have seen him. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My thoughts were more towards recent Redcar riders. Not so much Middlesbrough. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
