It’s the guys decision and when they risk everything every time they go on the track they are entitled to retire whenever they want, whether that’s at 43/23 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mike0310 660 Posted August 10, 2021 Of course it’s it’s up to the rider and I fully respect his decision it’s just been great to see him every week and I’m sure every club would like him in there team including you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Robinh88 571 Posted August 10, 2021 (edited) Well if it is his last season what a way to go out! Saw his first meeting away at Scunthorpe and thought he was outstanding. Glad to see he has kept it up pretty much every week Just gotta enjoy his class while he is here, same with Nicholls. Both loyal and consistent riders over the years.

And I bet his equipment was 'gleaming' as well... Something my lad said on Monday was "how good do his bikes look?" He rode on Sunday at Newcastle too... A true professional... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pinny 2,536 Posted August 11, 2021 I remember around 5 years ago he was reserve for Poole and was awful , could only really beat the graded reserves at the time. Very impressive how hes bounced back and become one of the top championship riders again. Will he retire or do one more season I wonder? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nothing against Bjarne as he has certainly come through a bad spell from a few seasons ago,but really the standard of the sport in in GB has dropped a lot since then.

It has of course but he is still beating the top boys in both leagues. What is his actual 2021 championship average, anybody know? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
