Havvy can't believe his luck 7 rides from his strongest reserve and monarchs a shambles Wouldn’t have made a difference if Roynon was fit. Shocking incident as a cameraman completely taken out by Craig Cooks flying bike. Nightmare. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JanAndersen 822 Posted August 4, 2023 Getting the feeling this could be quite serious. Really hope the person who got hit is ok. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Steve Shovlar 10,439 Posted August 4, 2023 (edited) Meeting abandoned. First of all best wishes to the cameraman. Hope he isn’t too badly injured and makes a speedy recovery. Secondly so sorry for all the Poole fans who made the 11 hour journey up to Edinburgh at a very big expense. A couple of hundred quid in fuel plus everything on top. A freak accident. Such a shame.
