They weren't saying that at the end. 4 rides, 4 wins and the 4 fastest times of the night. Thank you Steve, you did us proud. And we'll have no more of that in the KO Cup semi final, thank you very much. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

False dawn 2,294 Posted September 4, 2021 9 hours ago, False dawn said: After a very unhappy visit to Poole in August I've had an idea. You know those old black and white POW films where the inmates are trying to get rid of the soil taken from a tunnel? They put the soil in bags inside their trousers with a draw string attached. Then they wandered onto the exercise area, pulled the draw string and released the unwanted soil onto the ground. Perhaps visiting riders could adopt a similar technique with bags of shale when they are doing their track walk at Wimborne Road? Funny how things happen sometimes, isn't it? Leicester had some new shale on track tonight. From Edinburgh (a quarry, I assume, not the speedway). Apparently it's larger stones and has less clay in it. Whatever it is, the racing was pretty good. Word is that 60 tons of it are heading down south. Hmmm. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steve Shovlar 10,439 Posted September 4, 2021 Already on the Poole track from Edinburgh. No clay in it though so the clay had to be mixed in and then the top surface of the old track removed and the new surface applied. Track was much better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And we'll have no more of that in the KO Cup semi final, thank you very much. Whoever wins the ko cup semi between us & Lions will easily go on to win it. Shame we av been drawn together in the semi as this would make for a crackin finale. Altho I'm a Pirate my local track is Leicester so should be at both legs. Hopefully the play off final will see us do battle to the end Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
