Pedersen having a farewell meeting in this country? Seriously? Was this part of the deal to get him to ride in this country again?
Greg Hancock will be wanting one next!!!
Back in the day you could happily do that... in the crazy world we live in today you'd have to put warnings up all over the place informing the would be toe rag that they might get hurt!
An update on Grigory Laguta, posted around 20 mins ago. "Regained consciousness within minutes of crash. Felt like a solid bell. Battered but didn't complain of anything specific bothering him. And is getting further evaluation". https://t.co/lZSAz0gZJh
The racing was generally rubbish last night with it all being over by bend 2 of lap 1... with the exception of races that Josh Pickering was in, he was great value. Track was underwatered and all the dirt had gone off the line by heat 3. Crowd looked poor, but that's what you get when you don't promote it... even Lenny the Lion couldn't be bothered lol
Lions will have to up their game if they are to win anything this year
Maybe, and it's always wise to say after the event, if a rider is parked up in a hotel car park over night with a van full of kit, they could ask the hotel management to park near the entrance and/or wheel clamp the vehicle... just saying.
I hate it when riders are fawning over each other after a race (even a crap one), only seems to be a relatively recent thing, probably since the Morans. I always remember Crump and Hancock being particularly tactile. Looking at videos from the 70's and early 80's riders barely even acknowledged each other after a race
Hold on a minute though, it's early days yet... I don't know how they're going to do it yet but I'm sure the BSPL can do something that will make things worse, just give them time.
Any Kent fans thinking of attending the double header, be advised that if you park in the supermarket car park there is a 4 hour restriction enforced by camera, so factor in time getting to and from the stadium and cross your fingers it's all over quick enough for you to watch both matches without getting a parking fine
