Triple.H.

It was posted on one of the Facebook pages that the inside and outside were for the entrypoint into the stadium

Limit is probably due to HSE and getting a safety certificate. It was said capacity was 2.5K but on Radio Oxford they said all 2K sold. Maybe the 2.5K includes riders, officials and stadium staff etc and for the opening meeting a lot have been kept for special guests and the media.

So as it comes from north of the border there's a 24hr window each year to get the best value for money

Great to see the various videos and hear the sound of the bikes when I was nearby this afternoon. Can't wait for Wednesday 13th April

Blank Canvas and cocked it up. No doubt the track builder/Layer had plenty of suggestions for improvements at that stage but They fell on deaf ears. Edit Redcar Somerset and Scunthorpe 3 examples of what can be done with a blank canvas

Car parking is at Unipart about half a mile away book your spot when you book tickets. Just scroll down further for the parking Shuttles arranged for those unable to walk the due distance easily

Two good signings But I hope they make very few appearances on your excellent racetrack

Good to see Mr Oystercard had a decent evening judging by his points. Fairplay after coming back from a big GetOff

He'd come in under the radar

No work permits anymore as far as I know Just various Visas which allow different things I may be wrong but I think when a few years back the Government clamped down there were a few Aussies on visitor Visas who had a spin after the meeting which was deemed to be not in accordance with their visa

The car park at Unipart is free You might not enjoy delays on the way to and from the meeting but that's hardly any promoters fault.

On the ticketing site it gives you the option to buy more than one ticket You could select 2 adults 1 older child and one kid for a quid on the same booking admittedly it adds on the pound per ticket booking fee at the end. Selecting car parking is simply scrolling down a little further It's not perfect but at least it's doable with a positive attitude instead of what seems to me a very negative one.

A tarmacadam carpark not even a muddy field

Bet if he can't get a visa he can't get into the country

No doubt you've looked at any benefits you're entitled too. I had a shock when I looked on the Government state pension page late last year, I don't qualify for a state pension till I'm 67, I've been in continual employment with the same employer since 1979 I have to pay at that time another 4 years NI contributions to get my full state pension. PS Sorry to hear of the loss of your wife, my condolences

Steve even though the weather can be a bit iffy even in the height of summer you need to pop down. Failing that make a guest appearance up north

Cue loads of posts saying they're not good enough, better riders available etc

It has to be remembered that Oxford City Council were fully behind retaining the Stadium for sporting and leisure use,also our former local MP Andrew Smith along of course with the Committee formed to save the stadium. Other areas aren't as lucky with having the local council on board.

Stop the press Exiled Russians have nothing good to say about Russia

Agreed But it may force those innocent people to overthrow their current leader as if the West go into try and sort it out we will definitely end up with WW3. The only way to solve the Putin Problem is for the Russians themselves to do it. Hopefully they have a suitable candidate for leadership with a following in the general population and among the armed forces.

I honestly can't believe some of what I've read on here and social media regarding the Russians not being in the GPs devaluing the series. Maybe it will maybe it won't Whoever wins, like it or lump it is World Champion. Even though the Russians not riding is only a very small nibble at Putin compared to other sports and Economic restrictions, I'd far rather see GPs without them than thousands if not millions of lives destroyed

I'm starting to get the feeling of no GPs in the old Eastern Bloc countries

Maybe with the current situation in Ukraine, which let's be honest seems to be getting worst each day. Poland could be in a position, though hopefully not, where non Polish riders would make themselves available for team changes in GB.

Apologies, i have jumped the gun on some of your original post, i completely agree on the basis of the pedigree of certain teams and riders should produce a better meeting

I'd pick a couple of bones out of this, 1st match of the season could be a better or could be a boring gate and go festival. Both teams will be ring rusty so you can't really judge form until every team has a few matches under their belts. If they put Glasgow vs Poole on as the first 2 streams it doesn't mean they're going to be meetings full of great racing, we'd all assume so because of their teams, but any 2 teams can produce a borefest. I myself succumbed and bought a season pass, before I read the email from my energy provider. Hopefully the service is good quality
