Bit late tonight.Guess i have missed ....not much probably.But this does show why i couldn't see the Danish clubs like Slangerup competing in the proposed Euro League.Slangerup would have been one of the teams and just imagine what they would have needed to spend to get up to strengtheven with a 6man Polish orSwedish team.Unless of courseyou ask the Poles and Swedes to destrengthen and then that just wouldn't attract the fans.I really fins it hard to believe it can work

Good quality streams available and i quite like the commentator.Not over doing things or trying to take centre stage and also so far no sayings that get on yer nerves.Thumbs up from me.Also like the way the 80cc track is off centre so they can use the same starting gate.In Denmark they are usually centered in the middle so they need to set up a gate in another position
-
Well i can't take any credit away from you,but i did address a question to Rasmus terkelsen on here about a month ago asking for details.Guess he never saw my question and then i forgot all about it until you started the thread. http://www.speedway-...showtopic=69503 And same for me.I once planned a trip to Slangerup the day after a Parken GP,but my girlfriend at the time got all moody,so that was that. Oh i hadn't heard about tonights cancellation......bugger,that makes for problems.I am certainly hoping to make it up for the Final at Holsted.Maybe i can also make the semi if it is this week or weekend.Just seen the semi is planned for next tuesday!!!!!

I have posted a few times here about the first time i saw him.There was an article on the web someone posted saying this new Danish super talent was making his debut on 500cc.I went up to Vojens for a 1.Division meeting and he was riding......watching with interest he was left a bit at the gate then in onemove went past 2,maybe all of the others on the first bend.I was thinking wow this kid is as good as they were saying.Then over the next few laps everyone passed him and that was that......
-
Tough for anyone who is behind in fairness.When Bjerre was at the back i was thinking "Ok we should see some passing..."but he couldn't do anything Think yes,for league meetings the crowd is fairly mature,but the big meetings like GPs and SWC are quite full with younger people having a good night out and drinking large quantities of alcohol
-
Well apart from when i went up to Esbjerg for the Danish semi-final.And what happened the next day was called a scandal by one or two.And i did talk to Mikkel B last week about it and got his views.Tomorrow is the re-staging.Fingers crossed Mikkel gets through
-
Yes.I guess for me,when i have travelled 250km then they all seem fairly close to each other.Obviously for me Vojens was the best situated track.But i think it was on my visit to grindsted that i had one bit of luck.First visit to the automated petrol stations where there is nobody working.Was totally confused.I don't know why really and pressed the wrong number pump.Was wondering why i was getting no petrol.Then a guy at the pump behind me had obviously put it more money than me and only got a little bit of petrol.Rang up the service hotline,complained and drove off.I wasstill wondering what happened to my petrol and decided to check all the pump.Went to the one he had been at and therewas petrol.Filled my bike and the canister from my top box and there was still petrol to be had!!!I had obvioulsy pressed his number pump,just before he did.So he got my 50kr and i got his whatever......Should try that one again
-
Grindsted as far as i know are not one of the best supported clubs.And this is a local derby! But the one time i went there i had to park my bike in a ploughed field.Big risk of it falling over as i didn't have anything to put under the stand.So that was the one and only time i went there.Now i have a car i would still think twice about parking there

World U21 Quali Neustadt / Donau
iris123 replied to iris123's topic in International World of Speedway
You two are weird and i on occasion work for one of you -
I think it is Grindsted tonight Yup,just looked on the schdules and Grindsted v Esbjerg.Just noticed Mr Mungo put Fjelsted when that should be esbjerg.Mikkel B makes his debut today after Vojens folded
-
Well i mean it is certainly true that he won.I am guessing a bit that all of the riders have more experience,because i don't know the history of all.but those i do know have been riding a fair while.I even think one or two might be over21 years old now.And Robert seems to have taken out a German licence so he can ride 500cc bikes here,rather like the Dryml brothers did years ago.And as far as i know ex World Champ Egon Müller was thinking of helping him out.Not sure if he actually is now though Here is the result of the meeting http://www.speedway.org/ergebnisse/2012/moowidamm/ergebnisse/index.html

Yes and young Robert Lambert won an 'open' U21 meeting here in Germany yesterday against far more experienced riders as far as i know
-
No it is the European Junior competition.Always used to be U19s,but must have changed it.Although funnily enough i think in Denmark and Sweden they have had qualifications using U19s for theEuropean and U21 for the World comps.So.......it is speedway after all

A Sad Anniversary For London Speedway
iris123 replied to Parsloes 1928 nearly's topic in Years Gone By
From what i hear, that London is so hard to get to.So i am pressuming that some people who go to the Olympics won't be able to get there and back to Cardiff in time?That is a total guess though as i don't know when either is on.... -

Nathan Greaves & Robert Lambert
iris123 replied to cometsfan2k4's topic in Youth Speedway and Development Leagues
Heard Robert won the U21 competition in Moorwinkelsdamm yesterday against quite experienced opposition.Well done.Seems he has entered the German Championship comp with a German licence for more experience. -
