Team Gb T2day Training

Poland take on a "Rest of the World" team in a couple of weeks time. Is there a fixture list of Test Matches that Team GB will be riding in this year?

What promotion is gonna risk a financial loss of a Test match?

 

However much the fans "say" they would support one?

I think test matches would prove popular if scheduled correctly. Trouble is there is no appetite for it amongst the BSPA / Team GB set up. Gatherings like this week are a good thing but it needs to be more regular and we need to be racing test matches on unfamiliar tracks as well as over here.

6 man teams as noted. I wonder how that will work in a race format?

So why have a squad and have training sessions if it isn't going to be put to any use?

 

As you say though this is the BSPA at the centre of this so logic and sense don't come into it.

I think this is the third season of these matches. For an example of the format see here:

I think the last three races are nominated.

Rosco 100% refutes that rumour in this week's Star!!

Tai's latest tweet certainly makes his point of view clear.

 

Ding Ding, round two
