Triple.H.

Oxford Spires announced as being on Wednesday 13th of march. Times to be confirmed. Currently only open to Sponsors and ST holders which is causing some moaning from non ST holders.

Haven't they altered the Leicester track yet again this winter ? Maybe the alterations, if there have been any, even if minor could make any of the riders struggle or maybe thrive.

My viewpoint, as I'm unable to Like your post is exactly the same. Could Albin do anything to avoid what happened ? I doubt it.

Thats some intelligent additive that you put it in a tank of fuel and it knows to work at its maximum effect at the startline.

Think a lot of it is down to which browser you use.

Taking the p××s ain't they ? naming one of the house designs after a stadium that hosts Speedway

They probably would get hammered in the final, but there's a chance they'd rise to the occasion. Stranger things have happened.

If Discovery are serious about making the sport bigger, take it to America, must be a suitable stadium in a big city available, put in a nice wide track.

That would IMO be a very backward step. Where would the riders to replace those who move up the ladder come from ? Or maybe the BSPL want to take they're heads out of the sand and work with the clubs using the NORA setup to bring riders through.

You can win the 4TT

I'm struggling to work out why a fair few posters think you're a twonk.

Are you Maurice Morris ? A name to rival the Neville brothers father.

Why not email the club and ask the question

All this talk of riders taking a while to get dialled in. They'll all have plenty of time to practice, TBH since we reopened and the track alterations took place I doubt you'd find a rider who'd struggle to suss it out in a race or two. I'd love to see Rasser and Moose doing the Buffalo Girl on this track

As a bit of an old git nowadays, one of the biggest whines I've heard over the years from supporters of many teams is we have different riders every year. Oxford have 7 riders who rode for the club last year. Four of them and potentially five if Cameron Heeps rides like he is more than capable of. I'm happy with the team, we might win the wooden spoon but I doubt it. Last season I thought we were way too top heavy, I was wrong. All I know is the season ain't over till the last heat, I'll be there for every meeting I can get to in all 3 leagues.

Pretty sure i read that JD rides here as he likes a busy schedule as if he doesn't have enough meetings he starts to overthink setups etc. So riding in the UK as he lives here is relatively simple.

Good Point that I hadn't thought of What bugs me is delays to start of the meeting due to people arriving late. In the best part of 50yrs I've managed to get to every meeting I've been too well ahead of the parade nevermind the start of the first race.

Those teams that will have to run a structured second half for junior racing will have to pull their socks up. No long delays to the start of the meeting because of a queue to get in. Unless there's a major incident in the area closing roads etc. Only breaks in the meeting from the official start time for grading and an interval or if there's a bad crash etc which we all know will happen at some point.

How many PL and CL teams had home meetings planned every week over the past few years

I was told last week in confidence, which is why I'm not naming the person concerned that Oxford have a former Birmingham rider lined up.

1st leg at Oxford Wednesday 18th October 2nd leg at Leicester Saturday 21st October

Just had a message off a mate saying Scott Nicholls in a BBC Radio Oxford interview tonight said that he's riding for Oxford next season.

Maybe it could be reassessed as he missed last season and a big chunk of 2022. Best interests of the sport and helping a British lad find a way back into the game. Would probably need another rule in the ever thickening book saying British riders who miss a season due to injury are entitled to a certain percentage reduction of their average.

Which wasn't down to being lucky. He rode a great first two bends and then nice and steady to take the win.

I was at the meeting and I'd say the track was tricky for the first 4 races and gradually got better after that. After Max Perry had his unfortunate accident, the forecast rain started to arrive. Once that rain got heavier there wasn't much chance IMO of the meeting being completed. Fairplay to all 14 riders for their efforts on the night. Good Luck to Max I hope he makes a full and speedy recovery.
