2ndbendbeerhut 1,781 Posted December 5, 2019 (edited) Ayres CL ave is 5.51... converts to 3.44 Its not at the bottom end that we need a rider.... its the number 1 that we need to sign. Maybe for a 2nd year running we will borrow someone else's before the season starts? Not as though there is anyone else...

Arch Stanton 2,247 Posted December 5, 2019 (edited) More than happy with Ayres as long as he has a more established reserve partner (Nico?) Edited December 5, 2019 by Arch Stanton Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's why nicol is on a 4 and todd kurtz Nicol and Kurtz are on a 4 because they are foreigners not because they haven't ridden PL , Ayres would come in on his converted CL average. No foreigner can go below 4 in PL. Edited December 5, 2019 by dorothy58 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Arch Stanton 2,247 Posted December 5, 2019 If we’ve signed Ayres on 3 and a half, then I’d say we’ve managed to sign a number 1. Otherwise we’d surely have gone with strong 5 pointer reserves like last year.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Baldyman 6,243 Posted December 5, 2019 Not sure how Ayres will stack up against other weak reserves, as I've only seen him a couple of times, and he loved throwing the bike into the fence. That was a few years back though, and not long after he started. From what I've seen, he does seem a keep it pinned balls out trier, so another entertaining rider,,, let's hope the track prep is more suitable for racers this time.

Can't really think of many off the top of my head, so maybe we have pulled off a blinder like Vaculik, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
