Snetterton BSB

Post by Bustaspoke »

O'halloran's got a new team mate https://bikesportnews.com/british-super ... erton-bsb/
I suppose Snetterton's more familiar to a Continental rider than Thruxton or Cadwell,good luck to him.
On a terrible,note,New Zealander Damo Rees who was racing at Knockhill the other week has died :shock:

I remember him from a podcast the other year & racing for Ashcourt last year,RIP Damo

Enjoyed that but Bridewell needs some PR coaching, unless he really is gonna ride through another rider but tbh my money is on Irwin if that’s who he picks the fight with 😃

He can sure ride though... Good weekend for him and the Bird team overall.

Rabat didn't quite have the pace in racing he had in Qually, but did OK. Seemed to struggle with some aspects of the riding as he seemed to be bucking/something on corner exits.

Yeah noticed that, wasn’t overly smooth.

I think getting to grips with minimal electronics at race pace,mid pack would be an aspect that requires practice! :shock:

I finally got to finish watching the racing today. It's fucking tennis in our house. :roll:

Anyway,great racing all around. Hiccy sure has lost his luck and his mojo,the island seems to do that to some riders. I hope Buchanan is ok,he had his bell well rung. Now that Bridewell is getting better starts,he's not having to work as hard to catch up. This might be his year,even though Glen Irwin thinks it's his!

Reece Irwin is a pure talking machine,I don't ever see him catch a breath. :lol:
