The Manchester League Senior Individual Final took place at Bury on
Wednesday evening. The track was wet and grippy, but fortunately the
riders were only subjected to light rain during the event.
Remi Burchardt became the fifth A & T rider to win this prestigious
event, which has been staged every year since 1955. Remi dropped his
only point to teammate Dariusz Pilas in heat 10. Dariusz lost out in a
second place run-off to Stockport's Terry Norman, after both riders had
scored 18 points. Darek Kurkowski's chances went with exclusions in
successive races, but his last lap pass on Norman in heat 17 ensured
that Burchardt's total of 19 points could not be equalled.
