It would be nice to have an update….like have they all now been sent out in the post/when. My bank statement says paid £20 via PayPal to Retroeditor on 5th October at 18:31.
You may be right, but as of this moment I see Dan rode in the British Championship to add something to his CV that was missing….. British Champion. Now got it.
Spectacular memories of him doing that. Watched this morning on you tube, 1982 world championship long track race when he hunted down Egon Muller on a really wet track….. amazing.
Just watched all 15 heats, just the races…none of the in between stuff, on Discovery+ and I thought this 2nd leg was more exciting, by a short head, than the first leg. A really good meeting, well done to both teams. Usually good meetings between BV and Sheffield, even back in the 60’s and 70’s.
I was being cynical when I said what’s one more manipulation of the rules.
I followed with “that is if it is a manipulation of the rules. Maybe the legal bods at BV are standing up to manipulation but it’s not seen by everyone”.
With the manipulation of the rules that have appears to have happened over the years, what’s one more….that is if it is a manipulation of the rules. maybe the legal bods at BV are standing up to manipulation but it’s not seen by everyone.
It is likely the first reserve may called up to cover injury for a GP or two, but highly unusual one, never mind two would get a full season in like this year. I hope the reason of 2022 never occurs again.
So, what the selectors have done this year is put a strong contender at the top, Lebedevs, and bounced around other nations whose riders have shown glimmer of hope during 2022 and give them a hope to cling on to. Fair do's in my mind. Though I do admit Rasmus Jensen in my mind it must have been close....Jensen instead of Lebedevs would have been acceptable.
That sounds like you want riders who are clearly in the top batch in the world should step down purely because they have been at the top for a few years and still are. Perhaps the top 3 this year should not be in next years series, fed up with them winning.
