Big issue for Ipswich now, is the next time it's wet fans may be out off travelling, not wanting to risk another wasted journey. It wasn't.

Aries Posted 8 hours ago Report Share Posted 8 hours ago 6 broom sweepers, 5 male and one female. Each with the objective of brushing the standing water to the kerb and ultimately in to the drain. One decided to brush the opposite direction to the others and brush the standing water out all over the track. Guess which one it was? 1 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However we know about Aussies and wet tracks 😉 The track is smooth and consistent, the tail ways the dog again - a ref on the 80s-90s wouldn't have called that off. Those that turned up to watch will think again the next time there's a shower on the forecast and who can blame them. It really a joke now.They don’t even want to get the Kevlar dirty now. Why not give a couple of riders a couple of laps to test the track turn the dirt over( if there’s any).Been there too many times now,I certainly don’t leave the house now if there is cloud in the sky. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the riders were in agreement to abandon the meeting. 1 hour ago, Roger Jacobs said: They interviewed Simon Humphrey-Kennett on BSN and he said that, unlike a clay surface which is hard, the heavy shower had got into the track surface and it was too slippery.

And that's why it's crumbling as a sport. Riders have too much power. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
