Add Laguta and Kubera to the list

I fully expect us to be on the end of a pumping we look poor this season whilst Poole look very strong high 50s low 60s for the pirates unfortunately.

Maybe the rules can be fiddled like when Josh Bate's was about 42 and somehow qualified as a rising star.

Yep he's probably England's best ever rider but i'm another who wish he would give it up and move onto something new he's no longer the force he was which is to be expected , but these riders have incredible grit as Woffy shows. Chris Holder is another example should have probably had 2-3 world titles but two terrible crashes and what happened to Darcy pulled him back from the absolute top level. and like Tai in the UK he can be 60% of the rider he was at his best and still beat 90% of the opposition in his sleep.

Don’t do social media at all

Belle Vue ran yesterday in 31 degree heat, starting at 12 noon. The track was being watered when we arrived and had clearly been well watered before (probably the previous day as well).   They watered every 4 heats, and were often doing a lap giving it a good top-up sprinkling after each 2 heats. The track was perfect, and the meeting was over in 2 hours despite a break when the medics had to tend to Luke Killeen. I know Buxton isn't Belle Vue's level, but with a Sunday/Monday Buxton/Belle Vue option again, I know which one I'd attend in future, and which I wouldn't rush back to.
