Reserve
Pair Also Win on Sunday
Posted 28/06/05
Whilst we were all shouting Shane and George
on to victory on Sunday, the Glasgow reserve pairing were having their
first outing riding together in Boston racejackets at Mildenhall.
James Cockle top scored on what was his debut for Boston
with 16(5), including a tactical ride, as Boston went on to claim
an away victory by 49 points to 42. Adam Roynon weighed
in with 6+2(5) but two of his rides were cut short - one due to engine
failure, the other due to a nasty looking fall.
The youngsters settled in to riding together quite quickly
and seemed to have a good understanding. Both were victims of heavy
falls during the meeting, Adam as above in heat 7 whilst James was
taken down by Mildenhall's ex Glasgow rider Aiden Collins in the first
running of heat 15 and spent some time down receiving medical attention.
He was able to take his place in the re-run alongside his new Glasgow
team mate Adam Roynon where both riders were to fall victim to engine
failure - Adam on the second lap, James at the end of lap three. James
pushed his bike home for the last lap to claim second place.
Hopefully neither youngster will have any after effects from
their outing and will be fit and ready to go against Hull on Wednesday
night.
