INCOGNITO 357 Posted November 16, 2018 11 minutes ago, Col said: If Zagar is 8.00 (no Eliteserin ride as yet) what is left points limit wise if Aces sign Cook, Bewley & Fricke? Zagar 8.00 Fricke 8.24 Cook 7.64 Bewley 7.09 30.97 used so just 11.53 left for three riders and all must have achieved a three point average so not much as that four Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
woodenspoon 157 Posted November 16, 2018 Belle Vue will have to go with a weaker team in 2019, despite not winning anything in 2018, as we were one of the highest combined averages team. For 2019 how about, Fricke Cook Bjerre Bewley Auty Berge Etheridge With the 2.5 reduction for NL riders that might just fit in the 42.5 limit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It seems yes as written in bspa statement, no doubt the managers know the detailed wording, if they have made it up yet.

woodenspoon 157 Posted November 16, 2018 I agree with your statements A Orlov, but please do not mention anything to do with a certain Southern club on this thread as we all know what happens, the thread will be taken over by their posters. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Phil The Ace 2,847 Posted November 16, 2018 So can we sign 7 British riders who all rode in NL, meaning we will have a team 17.5% higher than the 42 50. That's the way to go surely 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
