First point so be gentle
I think the GP's this yr have been pretty dam good on the whole - Im the half full glass brigade which is hard having been a follower of Preston North End for 40 yrs ( but thats another story ) , loved this sport for yrs and like a few Im sure I lost my love as I got married , young family etc etc but with the introduction of Sky etc I have started going back to GP's , Belle Vue meets and think this is a truly breath taking minority sport in the UK that although at times appears from my view to be run with mob rule in some respects provides a real sense of excitement for me , its the best sport in the UK in my opinion for value for money , committment , dam good banter when I attend ....
Anyway Im going off on a tangent , thought last nights GP's was excellant and delighted that Hancock ( superb ambassador for the sport IMO ) appears to have one hand on the title , he may not be the most exciting speedeay rider on the planet and every heat with a Ward, Syfudinov , Pedersen , Gollob etc would provide thrills per minute this sport is enjoyable due to different styles of riders something which I hope continues for a long time to come
