auntie doris 2,339 Posted December 20, 2019 (edited) Used to watch the Wright Bros. up at Worky 2004/5, James was flying number 6, Charles a second-halfer. Always had time for a chat at Worky and Belle Vue, the local team they followed. Edited December 20, 2019 by auntie doris Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sidney the robin 4,735 Posted December 20, 2019 9 hours ago, EnglishRoundabout said: Yes, I’d forgotten about David Rudd. Those two together were often brilliant. James Wright regularly practiced after meetings at Somerset Sid. Looked really fast and up for it ( obviously it’s easy to look good on your own). He also regularly “spannered” for his brother Charles Personally I think James has seen his best days. Yes went to Buxton in 2003/4 ? V the Sprockets Holloway rode and James was awesome young Charles then was just starting.out..The Championship is a tough league now and Newcastle for James won't be an easy home track to master he has done well on the grass track in recent years hope he does well.

Yeah there is nothing to be afraid of when you look at other teams. If the top 4 ride to form then we only need a bit of improvement from the other 3 and we will be ok. Hopefully they are patient with Rowe. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
