Lets hope it changes. Rain all day long on Good Friday here in Workington !

That's a week away and the BBC forecast is usually pessimistic.

True,But the weather can change so quick but should still be more accurate now than 30 years ago.Anybody else worried about Tates form?

In my opinion he was on the pace in the Peter craven at belle Vue, but outclassed by the top guys, but last nite looked poor could not gate, maybe did not want to risk it on a greasy track ?

About 15-20 Comets fans present at last nights Ben Fund meeting at Glasgow, Stoney made an appearance promoting his "Skinflint Rally " challenge in aid of the Ben Fund.

Basically Stoney and co driver (ex mechanic) have sourced a car for under £500  and have to drive to Nice completing challenges along the way.

 

The Rally takes place in September and a just giving page is to be set up.

Tate was Interviewed on BSN after the spill involving Kyle Howarth. He said he had changed bikes in that heat which was his 4th ride because his first bike was apparently too powerful and not driving forward off the line. Something certainly wasn't right because his starts were woeful. He got away much better in his 4th ride and was unlucky to be excluded when Kyle Howarth appeared to almost perform a right angle turn on the first corner to give him nowhere to go when he was a close second. He said he was looking for a better result in his final ride but didn't make a good start and then lost some control of the the bike going wide on turn 2 which appeared to  finish his race really.  After watching him underperform in the Aussie Champs on BSN I admit to being slightly concerned that we may once again not see the 2024 Tate in 2026. Hopefully we will and that will do his confidence a world of good for sure.
