Poole 2026

[IainB]

Booked a holiday this afternoon in Poole... thought, oh I'll be able to pull a visit in to Wimborne Road, checked the fixtures out and there's only 1 single fixture between the 9th of May and the 14th of July!!!! WTF!!!!

At least the one fixture is in school holidays though. 😉 Hmmm, i wonder if it to let Cooper do his school exams!

Should have looked at fixture list 1st 😜 but if you go down to the quayside you will see some nice new boats being built at the sunseeker boat manufacturers, a highlight of going to Poole, then goes downhill when you go to wimbored road 😜😀

There could be a BSN or KO cup match fitted in perhaps

You need to hope Cooper doesn’t have à lack of confidence from riding for Kings Lynn been absolutely thrown in at the deep end which is so wrong for a young kid

Agree but the kids advisors or the kid him self could have said no, the same as agreeing to ride in Poland and I think one of the Scandinavian countries, imo he is doing to much too soon, and the same with cairns

There WILL be KO CUP, BSN and the Harbour Masters Challenge fixtures to be slotted in. The latter probably dependent on getting enough young riders to commit to a midweek meeting!?

If you've ever met or spoken with Cooper, the one thing he's not lacking is confidence! He may be lacking consistency in his gating but that will come. His overall bike skills are remarkable for a 16 year old.

Imo it will be his physical condition towards the 2nd half of the season which may affect him.

In the meantime we watch and wonder.....

He won't lack confidence. Why would he when he was much more on the pace last night?! Looks good for someone thrown in at the deep end. Once he sharpens up his starts he'll be just fine in the Premiership.

Gavan doing Gavan things, comes running to the Poole thread as soon as he thinks there is a dig to be had.
