Paul 67 Posted September 7, 2015 Can't see a thread for this. Anyone going? Bit of a makeshift team for Rye with Bowen (using R/R) and Maassen (awaiting guest replacement) injured. With Greenwood given the all clear to ride it's a very top heavy Rockets team. Could be a close call this one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Weather good for the rest of the day, but will be a bit nippy later. I'm about twenty miles down the River Lea from Rye House. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ben91 1,743 Posted September 7, 2015 So who is riding for the Rockets in place of Maassen? Not good enough needing guests and not telling the paying public who they will be in advance of the meeting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shadders 4,135 Posted September 7, 2015 This could be very tight, should be interesting and I am coming up for this one, any weather updates locally would be appreciated. I'm less than a mile from the track. It's currently overcast, no rain and only 20% chance of it come race time Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dave Stummings 126 Posted September 7, 2015 So who is riding for the Rockets in place of Maassen? Not good enough needing guests and not telling the paying public who they will be in advance of the meeting. This is the problem when the Rye House promotion decides to put a meeting on the same night as the Raiders are away from home. I’d like to see Kyle Hughes riding instead on Maassen, but of course the Raiders are at Kent! Perhaps he’ll ride on Saturday at Rye? Whoever the guest is it’ll be a tall order for them. But let’s look on the bright side. 1. As well as the lovely flowers as you walk in front of the long bar, there’s another temporary stand appeared on the second bend. 2. The raffle will take place at heat 2. 3. No doubt we’ll have the dulcet tones of John Strong while Craig is away. 4. Len will through a lucky £2 coin in the massive crowd [anyone notice yesterday was a lucky one pound coin?] 5. Len will welcome Robert Lambert and say nothing else. 6. Barbara Horley, bless her cotton socks, will be taking over as team manager from John Sampford and still officiate the meeting. After all women can multitask………. 7. They’ll be draft beer in the bars. 8. Andrew Silver & Luke Chessell will be guests of honour. Well you get the picture…… 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shadders 4,135 Posted September 8, 2015 I said we'd lose, but not by that much. Season can't end soon enough. I hope lessons have been learned re make up of the team for next year, especially at the lower end Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
