coalman 22 Posted October 30, 2015 Funny that could run back half the length of the straight to attack another rider . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chris4gillian 1,832 Posted October 30, 2015 Except he wasn't taken out. Wasn't even touched. You don't need to be 'hit' to be taken out...there are plenty of ways a rider can be taken out without any contact and Nicki is the master of this art. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So, finally an admission. Hancock jumped of his bike. However, as you have mentioned it, please list just some of the 'plenty of ways a rider can be taken out without contact'.

He didn't and even if he did, that would actually suggest he wasn't 'knocked off'. Edited October 30, 2015 by BWitcher Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chris4gillian 1,832 Posted October 30, 2015 So, finally an admission. Hancock jumped of his bike. However, as you have mentioned it, please list just some of the 'plenty of ways a rider can be taken out without contact'. Squeezed out to the fence, riding immediately across a riders line (one of Nicki's favourites on lap 4 heading to the finish line), being forced wide into the heavy dirt, riding under overly hard going into a bend...all can be done with no contact. Want me to go on? As for your first sentence, I have made no such admission. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SteveEvans 248 Posted October 31, 2015 (edited) Nicki is a fine rider, but he has made his bed over a career littered with controversial riding. Its quite possible he gets harshly judged sometimes based on the past but that's the consequences of his own actions. He's worthy of world #3 and rode some fantastic GP's this year. He also somehow attracts trouble and revels in his bad boy role. He reminds me of the kid at school who was always in the headmasters office connected with trouble, whether he caused it directly or not. Greg and Masters did wrong and apologized for their actions. Correct me if i'm wrong but has Nicki ever apologized for his? Once? I've never been knocked off a bike at 70mph, or had my line taken away so I can't have reality on how these guys feel in the heat of the moment. Given how many crashes occur in speedway its almost amazing we don't have more brawls. And being professionals, Greg and Nicki, at least for now, have moved past their issues its seems. The most fascinating part of this thread though isn't Nicki or Greg, its posters who never have and never will ride a bike talking like experts about riders crashing, jumping off the bike, etc, and their actions after. How can you possibly judge when you've never done this? BSF comedy at its finest!! Edited October 31, 2015 by SteveEvans 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
