I thought NZ were allocated 2 places at Norden.So who is the other rider joining Grant?Or have they given a place up?

Ouch!!!! Concrete floor,just like Kiel.And with the same results.Plenty of spills.Hope everyone got through without injury.Like the photo of Sönke's dad having a nap

Then there were 2 semis and a final competed by the top 8 scorers for the.. 1000 Euro ÖAMTC Trophy Which was won by-A.Roynon http://www.speedway-austria.at/

Good news Peter Any idea when the fixture list will be confirmed?

Sure it is not natural ice as last year they postponed the meeting because the cooling machine broke down

So what about Lonigo? Plus the worry i would think at Daugavpils is that the attendance dropped after a fairly good start.

Well i did say "no injuries" and apparently what with the mild weather,Bauer felt the track wasn't at it's best.One or two others pulled out as well Someone put a couple of heats from friday on

Yes well done Mark I said it looked a very even and competetive field.Glad to see him going well.Something must have happened to Heinz Göldi though.Didn't he win this a few years back? Günther to win tonight.But main thing,get through without any injuries!Hoping to see a good performance from Dmitri Tschatschin as well

No Hungarian riders so far?I guess Magosi and Tabaka etc will also sign.Pity if these teams just end up using mainly foreign riders and not homegrown.One or two top riders i can understand.

A Dutch programme on Ice Racing from Assen and the Roleof Thijs Cup from last year by the looks of it. Assen

I thought he might, and could expect Puodzuks to be there as well. I see on Patrick Hougaards site that he has also signed for Diedenbergen

Polish rider Marcin Nowaczyk has signed for Pfaffenhofen.Looked pretty good last year in Germany.Had a couple of good meetings for Neuenknick and went well at Moorwinkelsdamm.Seemed to struggle in Poland riding for Poznan though.Maybe the Bundesliga is more his level or maybe a move back to Rawicz will help Talk also that Matze Schultz will move to Wolfslake.Back to the team he won the Bundesliga with back in 2004 when they were the joint Parchim/Wolfslake team

Be interesting what he thinks promoters should do in a wet track dispute.Common knowledge i think that Ole thinks meetings should go ahead unless the track is totally un-rideable.But what is un-rideable?He is obviously one of the best riders ever,so has more ability than most.Plus in Denmark they ride in conditions that probably wouldn't be considered in Britain.At least at junior level.But the thing to ponder is why training for international meetings is often cancelled at Vojens?

Well Grigorij Laguta,who was the Latvian GP wildcard rider,plus they have just got Kjastas Puodzuks back and also signed Lagutas younger brother Artiom.Plus Piotr Swist.A few Latvians and a few Russians.Not a bad side,but not outstanding.Laguta did look good in the Latvian GP though.

What do you want to know?You could try a pm to Stomat,who is from Daugavpils.If you are after detailed info

I was thinking exactly the same thing.Just thought both songs shared the same music It was only that i decided to inspect the site further that i saw a link to "Marching along together".Didn't get to hear the tune though as it never seemed to buffer up or whatever it is these things do

Just the rain hitting your windows.The other day my windows were rocked by a bomb blast!!!!!! Workmen dug up a WW2 bomb.The bomb disposal experts took it onto an island in the Elbe and set it off and it was heard all over the west of Hamburg.Wondered what the hell it was.Went in and asked my girlfriend if she heard it and typical woman,she heard nothing If i open a pack of sweets though she is straight in

Must say that the Hackney Kestrels side was a great side to watch.Paul Whittaker was one of my favourite riders at the time,when he could regularly get double figures from the reserve spot. You definetely missed some great speedway

I agree with Parsloes Same when the Dons moved to Eastbourne.It wasn't the same.It certainly wasn't my club,just because they were called the Dons and had Wimbledon riders in the team.By the time i went to Eastbourne they were called the Eagles again.Which is what they were in the first place imo

Any idea what happened.I guess arson as there is a telephone number Didn't you see the second day online f-s-p.That was a cracking meeting with at least 4 fantastic heats plus an amazing bit of skill from Bulankin.If day one was as good then it really must have been a super weekend.There was a preview on bashinform.ru that said it was just about the hardest meeting of the season.No easy heats or opponents.And the way the weather is going this side of the continent and the professionalism that Togliatti seem to be bringing to both speedway and iceracing it could be tougher in future for western riders to compete with the Russians.I guess the only hope is that more money and clubs follow Togliatti and maybe,just maybe a few western riders could get a team place somewhere in Russia

Done the trip myself on the train and i am almost 100% sure it took about half that time.Get the train to the airport and Malmo is about 2 stops after that.Maybe an hour from Copenhagen City Centre to the track. I guess the morning of the GP might attract a few coming over from Sweden.Although i doubt a meeting of that level will attract many.The other year they held a 80cc test match between Denmark and Sweden then at the track in Copenhagen.

Yes.Didn't you read my interview with Martin Smolinski? Last year there were a number of injuries.Matten Kröger being the worst.He was out for about 4 months.I met him at a petrol station on my way to Denmark in about May and he was still hobbling fairly badly.Tobi Kroner also broke a couple of toes and a couple of other riders had to have treatment.That is why i asked Smoli about the meeting and if he knew what the surface would be.I am fairly sure(although it was a long way back now) that one of the riders told me during the proper season that they were totally unprepared for that surface and didn't have tyres to suit it!

Thanks guys and thanks to Mark for agreeing to it and for the great answers Even i am a bit stunned at how long it takes to do a back tyre See the heat details from Saalfelden.Franky had a big crash in his first heat.Then won his other 4 heats plus the run-off on his reserve bike!
