im not really sure what the makeup of there team has to do with a totally seperate individual meeting? looking at the lineup there are only 12 riders, not sure if that was always the plan or they were aiming for 16 but the rest are at redcar perhaps?

None of the 6 riders in the Buxton team (still no 7th rider) are under 21 (many not even close to 21) so if that's the standard they're aiming at, then it shouldn't have any conflict with a British Under-21 meeting containing all the youngsters.

Wait till Saturday on the rarely affected by the weather 😜

Part of the enjoyment was the whole city seemed to embrace it and  people were talking about it everywhere you went. Also you could guarantee it would be on although the drainage and facilities at the NSS seem to be so good the meetings there are rarely affected.

I quite like the suggestion of awarding one point each and not re-arrange, this would focus minds a bit.  It would also mean fixture lists could stay as they are for the season.  There would need to be exceptions for playoff meetings and cup meetings where that wouldn't deliver a victor and then if clubs have commitments for x number of meetings they could fill them with other events, like clubs used to hold. I'm not in Ipswich today so can't give the weather picture but it's currently sunny here in Stratford.  

If it ain't broken... Etc. Etc. Etc.. Edit. And Cricket also ring fence their elite players and direct them as to where and when they can play through central contracts.. How much longer will it be before Poland do the same?..
