Nice idea, but would you give a ride to someone who hasn't ridden for a while, when ANother rider who is on top form knocking in the points for fun and is available . All clubs should be having that win at all costs mentality.

How many of last years riders are owed money ?

Prem 32 league fixtures, Championship 36 league fixtures, hardly that much difference. Even If the rider during the season was doubling up between the 2 leagues and had priority with the Prem club, I'm sure he would then ride more matches for them, you only need 2 fixtures to clash during the season to alter the balance.

Sure I read on another thread that the rider would ride for which ever club he mad most appearences for during the season, which make sense to me.

Will have another go this year. Can't be any worse than last year, out 1st round.

Good website, very informative.looks like this is the link http://www.ma.org.au/index.php?id=12&tx_ttnews%5Btt_news%5D=16385&cHash=2b6e60044e5a8e68d69a860c6a514686

Does any one have a link to who is in this years Australian Championship?

No this a thread for the Rye House BMR Rockets, Lakeside still race at Thurrock but are now a National League team. You will find them in the National League section under Lakeside 2017.

Is this the Rye House thread?

Bowtell left the end of 2015 season, what a season that was, followed Hume and Bowtell alot in their 1st season, both so raw and fast but couldn't gate but were so fast but had so much trouble completing 4 laps , both lads never knew when to give up. Bowtell seemed to struggle in the Mildenhall team last year where as Hume blossomed at Brum. Hunter looked a good prospect at the end of 2015, more smooth than the other 2, but struggled with injuries in 2016. Hope all 3 do well next year.

i also read somewhere( believe it was on the Wolves thread) that when it comes to the play offs, the rider would ride for which ever team he had made the most appearances for that season( which does sort of make sense).

Thought I read somewhere that if a rider was an assert of neither club that the club who he rode for the previous season took priority, new rule introduced this season.

Surely Rye have 1st priority with Branford as he rode for us last year

Got my 2nd choice so looking forward to a good season, hope to get to some matches next year. Probably end up doing more away matches than home ones.

Yeah could have had Karger back on a 5 again.

Connor signed for Ipswich as well, so can't see him doing all 3 leagues this season. Jye Etheridge had a try out last year. Available on a 3 average , perhaps he is our man!!

Not sure if Ht15 results count towards the averages.

Out of that list I would prefer Zach,Ellis or Danyon in that order. If we went down the 2pt pointer route . Jack Parkinson Blackburn or Jack Smith seem to be the only 2 worth looking at.

5.15 according to BSPA Greensheets

I wonder if Rye will name the last rider tomorrow or whether we will have to wait awhile. Decent top 6, hope we can find a decent 3pt rider from somewhere.

Thought i read a while back that Chris Harris had taken one of the youngsters under his wing. Was that JPB ?

Kenneth and Morley mates, Lakeside connection Kennett and Morley mates, Lakeside connection Kennett , Robson and Morley mates, Lakeside connection. Please not Mear.

Interesting last paragraph about Workington from the newspaper article. Not seen that mentioned before. SGP Premiership 2017 teams: Belle Vue, Coventry, King's Lynn, Leicester, Poole, Rye House, Somerset, Swindon, Wolverhampton. Workington are expected to take their place in the Premiership, but this is subject to confirmation.

Does this now mean that we will have 3 races with 3 riders only and Shane's 4th ride being taken by a reserve?
