Col 870 Posted May 6 I thought it was reasonably entertaining meeting considering how one-sided it was. Lidsey v Pawlicki & heat 14 being the highlights. Didn't seem a lack of effort from Pawlicki, just didn't have enough speed. Milik started well but faded after mechanical gremlins but of the three Lampart acquitted himself best. Hope to see a stream of heat 14. I had thought Flint was too far in front of Cook to be caught so my eyes were on Mountain closing in on Lampart so missed Cook passing Flint. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Seems that Birmingham started well, or maybe BV started slowly _ checked the scores after about 6 heats and saw they were competitive and doing well then it all seemed to go wrong for them!

I thought he might have been a local character like "'Rum Weather' was in Leicester... I was touring the States a few years ago and got approached by a local tramp for money, it was at Santa Monica beach! I thought there's worse places to be a tramp, made me wonder why there weren't more there when I see some of them sat outside my local Aldi 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But it might be like Klindt said on the podcast, some riders struggle at beginning and end of the season as the changeable weather affects their bike too much.

Unbelievable! If he'd said it effects him and not his engines that would have been more believable Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Col 870 Posted May 7 Flint is usually good at NSS, in comparison to any other RS at least. I didn't see it at the time, my eyes were on Mountain v Lampart, but Flint drifted a little too wide into the really deep material allowing Cook through. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
