Thats my understanding.
The question is where are they going to get the Under 21 riders from.
They have not had the best of luck with rising stars.
Is it going to be any better at Under 21 level?
Being based in Marylebone I have to plan travel with care but Friday night at Belle Vue followed by Saturday at Redcar and a slow train journey home on Sunday seams the ideal way to end the season
For me it Bewley, Holder (if fit) and Lingren are givens. Which leaves one to do.
I suspect it will be a rider who's national is not represented by those riders already in and host an SGP.
Wouldn't his GP bike (s) be in Torun for the SGP. It's the Bates paying so I suspect you are in cloud cuckoo land regarding any extra bonus.
Drew Kemp impressed me most of the visitors last night. Battled hard for his points and was unlucky when he lost out on the line for a win in one race, but it was to a great pass so nothing to be ashamed of.
All I want is a dry fortnight so the final takes place the following week. If its pushed back by a week I will have to amend my travel plans as I was off to the sun.
Planning on coming up for this and hopefully making the 21:45 train back to London.
What would you say my chances are?
Morris had hit some form so I think RR makes the Lions a little weaker. I think Lynn may sneak a win by 4 points.
Heard any rumours?
Am I going mad (or have a reached a certain age) or do I remember that a Promoter said that they hoped to get 2027 rules and regs sorted out in the summer this year so they could plan and sign riders earlier to provide riders, promoters and fans with security regarding the next season......
I think what last night demonstrated is that A} Leicester were correct in not resigning Fricke B} Despite what many Leicester fans thought in the closed season Douglas is a real number 1 and they were right to build a team around him.
If the headline figure of 200k is hit I am told that the demographics need to be attractive to advertisers so age and disposable income which are never strong aspects of the sport. I am planning on having both of my TV's running itv4, laptop and desktop streaming itvx and also recording the meeting. As they say, every little helps.
The only thing itv will care about is viewing figures.
If my source is correct they will be looking at a 2% share of between 10,000,000 and 15,000,00 Saturday night viewers. I suspect this is best described as ambitious.
