Col 856 Posted April 16 Fingers crossed the weather forecast for the visit of Belle Vue to Beaumont Park isn't too wet, I may finally get my first methanol fix of 2024. Can't see any reason why both teams shouldn't be at full strength - no continental meetings. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Teromaafan 586 Posted April 16 Dickson has reverted back to the original riding order after the Brum win. Fricke needs to come to the party sooner rather than later. When he does, the riding order of the other four won’t matter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

iainb 5,055 Posted April 18 (edited) 26 minutes ago, Col said: Forecast has gone rather grim! The forecast I'm looking at looks marginally better than this but Phil Morris really needs to look at introducing some kind of formula for cancelling meetings. Leicester have called meetings off in the past on better forecasts than this and a lot earlier, yet this is still on. I'm currently on holiday in North Wales deciding whether to come home early for this... and don't think I'll bother! Edited April 18 by iainb Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rob B 1,263 Posted April 18 Looking at several forecasts all show rain from around 5pm to 9pm, not small bit of rain either, big band moving south down country. Can’t see how it can be on although frustrating with a dry day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
W9 Lion 227 Posted April 18 According to met check 0.5mm of rain over two hours. So that saves the club 4 laps of diesel as Andy put more than that down over four laps with the bowser. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FishersGate 526 Posted April 18 I've never used met check but w9lion is right only says a tiny amount of rain. Other apps say its going to rain but not sure how much. Tough one for the club as we could only get light drizzle Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rob B 1,263 Posted April 18 In Manchester we suppose to be in the middle of the band of rain moving south and we barely had any rain at all, it’s very windy. Made decision to set off about 4.30, hope we don’t have a wasted trip. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lenny Lion 138 Posted April 18 (edited) Only 1 winner of this match . The weather. I can already see on my ring doorbell that’s it’s raining 3 miles from the track consistently heavy. Why on earth is the meeting still on? can Stewart & Paul not read the forecast ? I have now have no choice but to rush home from work & get upto the track before inevitable announcement is made that the meeting is postponed due to the rain that has been falling since 4pm.

Interesting. I'm just over two miles away from track at services and it is, at worst so far, very light drizzle. Depends on direction I guess.
