Some changes to line-up for Saturday's memorial meeting.
One to note is Kemp in for Batchelor. Unsure where Batchelor is, but he hasn't missed a meeting for us in two years, so must be something important.
More track time for Kemp is a positive though.
He was gating poor like the rest of the team and trying too hard. In the earlier heats he was going really wide when that outside line wasn't working.
I'm sure he'll come good, but he needs to get that setup dialled in plus fix those mechanical gremlins that he often has
Im a bit calmer now but that is an embarrassing result at home.
Im not sure what the issues were but maybe the track conditions caught out our riders. Everyone seemed so slow at first and Glasgow were flying out the gates.
End of the meeting provided some good quality racing and im thankful because I was going home a stinker otherwise.
Although it doesnt matter, im still adamant tate pipped Harris on the line. I would like to see that one again
Etherington and Workington parted ways mutually. He knew he was no where near ready. Spencer is a better rider than Whalley, although Whalley may have a higher ceiling.
Also, it isnt the same. Having a British Passport may make you British, but he's still and Aussie
Riders start the sport at different ages. Rising star shouldnt necessarily mean a young person. In this case, they are replacing a British lad with an Aussie who, by all accounts, has been performing well at ndl level but in the reserve berth.
Doesn't sit right with me
Shouldn't be allowed. Rising star needs brought into Championship and you shouldn't be allowed to drop them. Tom Spencer is a young rider, who can ride at champ level, but needed time to develop.
Poor by Plymouth here.
