illness

i had a long chat with Kvech and Sitera in Warsaw, he doesn't see himself in the UK this year, but was more open about next. but then money talks .....

but if Buster could reduce his outlay with championship, race on Wednesdays again, and have someone to run the day to day of the club, is it not worth a try? or would the PL block it due to numbers?

time Kings Lynn went championship, try to bring a feel good factor back to the club

woke lefty algorithms now affecting speedway groups, whatever next

the rider i'd be looking to get is Bednar

unless they're his groups

or has Karl just thrown his toys out the pram again?

you can now go on a Thursday and take in another

you mean he didn't expect a Polish reserve to score 18 points ......

buster will be doing this on principle, and for that you do have to admire it. yes it will upset people/other promoters, but the only way the league can succeed is if all of them stuck together, one way or the other

sounds to me like he's ready for Birmingham

or the BSPL grudgingly accepted but someone complained to the SCB

for now ...

makes you wonder if they're on a guarantee.

precedent set

Riga is a nice city and the GP will be in the day (they have no lighting) so still time to go out after the meeting. Warsaw is always a great atmosphere and a fabulous city to explore

the track?

my only guess is lack of depth, not knowing if any of our GP riders could do it or not

the only main FIM event in the year is the SWC/SoN, all the others are FIMEurope and these meetings have a lot more limitations, not only financial but also on riders allowed i.e only one GP rider in teams. Some nations choose to use a GP rider, some choose to blood youngsters, others choose experience with youngsters. It's about finding the balance and of course riders that want to be involved. Pulling on a national racejacket isn't always the same now as it was in the past, sometimes it comes down to finances and availability. I can assure you though that GB do take things incredibly seriously and are constantly working to try to progress and push riders that want to be involved and there will certainly be more medals earned this season.

i wonder if it's more of a way to guarantee all riders are present as practice for Cardiff & Warsaw is on the Friday

Last year at Pardubice we had a meeting postponed and then rearranged for a 9am start, Mikkelsen and Bewley got helicopters to their Polish meetings and Adam Ellis drove but missed his sign in by minutes I believe so couldn’t ride in the meeting

Buster used to get much more detailed forecasts from RAF Marham, so maybe they’re expecting some more localised issues. But if there’s been cars on an already wet track it certainly doesn’t help

Bednar looks to be one of the best coming out of the Czech Republic, worth keeping an eye on for sure

Terrible last 4 heats, and Brennan missed his last ride to get his helicopter
