Shadders 4,137 Posted January 15, 2012 (edited) Good chance for Rye to use one of the weekends up on the Scottish Tour. Good shout, but we're at the mercy of the Moanarchs promotion who sort out all of the PL fixtures... The Rockets Northern tours seem to be taking place earlier and earlier in the season, so don't be surprised if we're travelling up there in late April when there will still be snow on the ground!

Lord Skid 434 Posted January 21, 2012 http://www.stuff.co.nz/sport/motorsport/6295065/Dream-ride-for-his-adopted-homeland How did Len get a GP rider at reserve, life in the old dog yet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bolly 96 Posted January 22, 2012 Good news for a Rye House Rider Have we ever had a current Grand Prix rider in the team before ?? I am sure that other members and ex-riders from Rye will rally round to help him. Richie Hawkins - gating coach Steve Boxall - mechanic and bike preparation Luke Bowen - wheelies and celebrations Chris Neath - Racing tactics and grippy track settings Len Silver - PR and supporters club Oh well, It will be good to see him on the parade lap.

phillipsr 2,062 Posted January 22, 2012 Wasn't Linus a reserve in a GP while he was with us? Sure Tai was aswell?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shadders 4,137 Posted January 22, 2012 (edited) Sure Tai was aswell?? I think he was a reserve at Cardiff in 2008, but didn't get a ride.... I'm now not sure Linus was a Rocket when he rode in a GP Edited January 22, 2012 by Shadders Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lord Skid 434 Posted January 22, 2012 Big difference in being a wild card and a meeting reserve though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bolly 96 Posted January 22, 2012 (edited) Your right Shadders. Scandinavian GP (Malilla) 14th August 2010. Linus as reserve, 2 rides and 1 point. But I am still looking for a rider who started a grand prix in the named 16 ? In the last few years I can think of only Linus, Tai, Eddie K and Davey Watt who have ridden in Grand Prix's. but not in main body of grand prix when currently riding for Rye House. I know that a lot more of you have a more in depth and longer knowledge of Rye House riders history. Edited January 22, 2012 by bolly Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jenga 2,998 Posted January 22, 2012 i think all rye fans will have to buy wide screen tv,s so you can see all the four riders in the nz gp. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
