Daniel Smith 5,645 Posted June 4, 2019 Although Proctor and Jorgensen haven't hit the road running, wouldn't it be a risk to bin fit rider's for an injured rider?!? Both can only get better and there was an improvement in both at home, points wise. Looking at the figures, it looks like we'll see June out and depending on form Riss could come back in for Kerr and be under 42.50 from July 1st. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Don't think they would bin a fit rider for an injured rideri'm sure they would only bring Riss back when fit.Personally think the Cook signing was for another rider and not Riss,but when Riss got injured it was common sense to do it the way they have done it. With the matches they have in June and the one at the end of May that counts towards the averages you would like the team average would take a slight dip,but who knows with the rolling avearges.I must admit i can't be bothered to go back over their last 20 matches,i will wait for the website to do that.

It depends upon the injury and the riders mentality. Lindgren, our best rider for more than a decade, had a bad smash and he was not as good for the whole of the next season. Other riders never get back to their previous level Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As to the semi final are you sure the Belle Vue rider was Bjerre ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Call me wolfie 677 Posted June 6, 2019 Oh ok. Yes. It was Tungate and Jacob at Monmore, then Freddie and Bjerre at BV Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As to the semi final are you sure the Belle Vue rider was Bjerre ? You're right about the injury at Monmore, catapulted, literally bouncing on his head. It did take him some time to truly get back to his best after that. Yes, it was Bjerre in the semi at Belle Vue. Bjerre was excluded. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
