Default 8th 'A' Euros

It's all over with Craggy finishing 5th and Bloomfield 7th in the main. Pidge just missed out from making the main so finished in 13th.
Well done lads, great showing from the UK young guns!!

Spoke to Bloomy about an hour ago, he felt he had the pace to be higher, much higher, but his throttle rod jammed on the very first lap and he was being lapped before he had even completed just two, although instead of letting the leaders through, he pulled away from them and was not actually lapped by the lead three until much later in the race!!! (shows what pace he knew he had)

Bloomers has always had the pace to hang with the best
just a shame he gets the odd niggling problem that holds him back once in a while. as soon as he gets one of those meetings where everything goes right there aint many people who will be able to keep up with him

Great to see the UK guys up there at the Euros. Maybe one day Flanders will be the team boss out there as well and spur you guys on just like he did in Belgium!
