Also heard a bike going round this afternoon, maybe our elusive rider no 7 or no 1 Tate and Celina doing laps round small training track Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

paul84 105 Posted March 23 A few have already mentioned on here about Tate and Celina being down the track a lot since their arrival but also nice to see them chipping in and helping out on jobs around the place, great for them to build a relationship too. I’ve met both of them and although we’ve yet to see them on track I can say they will be great with the supporters. Anyway today is the day down to the serious stuff, hope to see at few at the Waverley for a pint too ! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I’ve seen them chipping in or at least trying to which is great to see I very much doubt any other riders do this maybe the young kids. Might be jumping the gun with this but if this season is relatively successful do they move up next year? There has been really positive stories since coming back so do they keep pushing on?

Let's just enjoy this season and don't even think about moving up, as it won't happen, too expensive, no lighting etc. So let's leave it there and enjoy to journey this season win lose or draw UTC 5 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm not a Comets fan, but I'm taking a general speedway fan interest in all this chat regarding the 7th signing. I'm guessing the 7th rider is not physically in the country, or at least not in Cumbria today! The style of this announcement would be for a marquee signing, which again I'm guessing can't be the case.....? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I suspect it's more of a "we finally managed to get it done last night" affair. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
