Yes the meeting did drag on at times,I agree,but these meetings often do especially when "other" things go on inbetween the races.To be honest in gragged on no more so than any other saturday night.
As you say it was great to see a massive turn out for Adrian,with plenty of fans from other tracks.The actual racing wasnt up to much with many races being won from the great,but anyway last night was all about Adrian Rymel,so to that end it was a successful night.
Spring well and truely sprung this week,we have had warm sunshine for a good part of the week and no rain.
Today its a bit cloudier and a bit cooler but its been dry overnight,dry now and forecast to stay that way just about all day.
Hope everyone enjoys the meeting tonight and theres a massive crowd.

I will support GB in this years SWC,however I think we have to be realistic enough to accept that we have no chance winning the thing out right,Id be happy just to make the final.
Adrians meeting will be a 4TT,Team GB v Team Austrailia v Team Denmark v Team Czech or Rest of World.
Riders who will be there so far,Joe Screen,Lee Complin,Mark Lemon,Kevin Doolan,Josef Franc and Michal Makovsky.
If thats true it does seem very silly,maybe the BSPA arent wanting the prospect of giving out a promoters license,only for Mildenhall Speedway to be back in the same position in the future.Just a guess.
Hopefully theres someone out there who can step in and can get the Fen Tigers back to where they belong,on track.
Whatever the rights and wrongs of this,its the many decent Mildenhall fans I feel for.They have lost their speedway and as we have seen with other tracks,when a track closes for whatever reason,in most cases its lost forever.I truely hope this wont be the case with Mildenhall Speedway.
Best wishes to Adrian on the announcement of your retirement,I hope its a long and happy one.Hopefully you will be rewarded with a bumper crowd this March,should be a great night.
