Will be staying in Bydgoszsz itself on Friday and Saturday nights and looking for a decent bar to while away some time.

Last year a few of us met up in the bar at the Hotel Brda - I was going to suggest something similar this year for starters on the Friday evening.

 

I'm sure Papa B will confirm a fine evening was had by one and all :)

 

Rico :rolleyes:

 

Good god yes Rico, if my hangover was anything to go by, I'll be at the Brda again this year, and you are more than welcome to assist me in the quest of consuming copious amounts of alcohol....

 

Do look out for Joanne.

 

If you find her - you might find me :D

I will be in Bydgoszcz as well and it would be fun to meet and have a beer together, if not at the stadium than maybe afterwords, if any of you are staying till Sunday. I'm staying to support my team Unia on Sunday meeting in Torun. Should be great event, plus Per is suppose to visit.

 

best,

f-s-p. See you for a beer. We're staying at City Hotel and going to sit on back straight. Hope you have got some accomodation, if not you can crash out on our floor. Sorry no three in a bed.

 

It's settled then!! My "man" came trough, and we are booked in the City as well. I thought the hotels would be full, so I gave the task to someone who has connections. Apparently they are not, but at least we have a place to stay (a bit more high profile than the Europejski in Wroclaw though :oops: ...)

 

We are arriving friday evening, on sunday morning we'll leave for the Torun meeting, and stay there overnight. Compensation tickets are arriving late this or early next week, we'll know about seats better by then. Probably backstraight...

hotel brda on Friday night

club under the city hotel on the saturday night?

 

The speedway party is on friday night, starting at 18pm, in somesort of indoor arena called "Luscnizja" or something. The brochure from Gothenburg says there will be disco with fireworks, famous dj's, rider parade, autographs...

 

Dont mean to dampen the party at Brda, but what about your fireworks...? :wink:

 

We'll see what the weekend has to offer for the occasional speedway traveller, probably loads of Zywieczs and Piast!

Will probably pop along and investigate this shindig but doubt it will keep us amused for the whole evening, hence suggesting the Brda as a convenient meeting point where everyone is likely to be able to meet up with each other.

 

I'm sure they were supposed to do something in the town centre last year the evening before the GP but it was cancelled. Hopefully this years event will go ahead as planned.

 

Rico :rolleyes:

Trying to work out directions to Bydgoszcz :unsure:

 

1. What's the best train station to use from Warsaw. The Central one doesn't seem to have many trains leaving from it and how do you get to them from the Central area.

 

2. What station do I get off at Bydgoszcz :unsure:

 

Rico, think you might be on my plane. Are you going at 9am from Stansted next Thursday?

1. Warszawa Centralna to Bydgoszcz Główna is the route you want

 

2. We always just get of at Bydgoszcz Główna and get a taxi from outside to the station to the hotel (sometimes an experience in itself).

 

We are flying Air Polonia next Thursday morning from Stansted so I guess it may well be the same flight. Staying in Warsaw Thursday night before heading off to Bydgoszcz on Friday morning.

Thanks Rico. But the first train that goes from Central Station is at 1320, changing at Kutno and getting to Bydgoszcz at 1737. Next one is three hours later. :unsure:

 

I'm a little confused here - I assume you mean on the Thursday, after you arrive.

 

There are trains at

 

0700 arr 1112

0820 arr 1242 1 change

1025 arr 1434

1027 arr 1723 1 change

1320 arr 1737 1 change

1425 arr 1820

1427 arr 1955 1 change

1624 arr 2004

1835 arr 2220

 

Same trains appear to run on the Friday as well.

 

Rico :rolleyes:

I put in the date of travel of 17.09.04, travel time 10:00 and the stations and got all the trains I mentioned above by clicking later and earlier connections buttons.

 

The site you mentioned uses exactly the same engine as the Polrail site.

 

Rico :rolleyes:

Is that when you type in Warszawa Centralna as the departing station ??

 

The times I've shown above are from Centralna, but some of the trains stop at other Warsaw stations, eg the 1025 from Centralna stops at Warszawa Zachodnia at 1030 and is appearing on your query.

 

I guess it depends where you are staying in Warsaw as to which is closest to your hotel - we're normally based in the Holiday Inn, which is right beside Centralna.

 

Rico :rolleyes:
