Allen rides CHRISTIAN hard up to the fence in 4. MM2 reckons a bit of revenge from heat 2. BILLY meanwhile is riding into the sunset. CHRISTIAN returns the compliment a lap later and it's another 5-1. Harris slid off turn 1 but remounted quickly enough to wave to BILLY on the horizon.

Yes, a great start for us! We need the weather to cooperate though.

Great ride by Scott Nicholls to pass both Wolves riders. Smolinski still en route presumably.
WILLIAM rides superbly again to round Schlein for third.
Harris in 8 as a tacsub on 15 m.
We are on a 5-1 when Harris, way last at the back, slides off and punctures the air fence! Re-run with Harris excluded when they've found Bill Bridgett's bike pump.

Still light rain/drizzle. Should be OK. Track is getting wet but racing is first class. Shouldn't expect a long interval though.

PK gets pushed almost into the pits and the Bees are on a 5-1.
Unfortunately (ahem) Janniro's bike stops just long enough for us to recover a 3-3.

Highlight of heat 11 arguably the arrival of Martin smolinski.
Unfortunately his arrival was not in time to be excluded again!
Great ride from the back by Scotty, on a TR.

Unfortunately his arrival was not in time to be excluded again! Fortunately, his arrival WAS in time to be excluded again! They've handled his absence well with the reserves, haven't they?

Could do with a 5-1 in the last, bonus in mind. Was hoping Freddie and Willie could pick up something against Janniro and Rosa Kleb, but alas, Freddie's Famous Fourteen continues.

Rosa who?

Actually, Rosa Klebb. From Russia With Love, played by Lotte Lenya. Wears the shoes with the poison-tipped steel spikes. As Vince said - steel shoe.
(I believe you pronounce Hlib - 'Klib', hence the tenuous reference)

NIce revenge win for Billy in Ht. 15. So, a ten point win... Enough for the bonus? When is the return leg?
