The Czechs and Russkies should be no competition for GB and Denmark anyway, but they've both made life doubly difficult for themselves.

It seems that George Stancl and Roman Povazhny are both out of favour with their federations or vice versa.

It would have made the meeting a bit more competitive if these guys were riding.

Sam.

I don't think that really we are that greater match for the danes.

realistically, it should be denmark straight through with us second. The fight for 3rd place could be interesting, as the drymls and topinka are in good form, the same goes with Darkin and Gafurov is something special so I think it could go either way.

Maybe slightly biased but i would have put Bjerre in the Danish team over iversen.

 

Does anybody know if there's a greater reason about Bjerre's omission.

 

I was surprised he wasn't included in the Copenhagen GP even as track reserve, now it appears he's not in the SWC team ? Bjerre's in better form than PUK surely at the moment ?

For all those that need to know!! (You know who you are)

We are now going to Swindon for this as Paul is on nights so will be sleeping and doesnt really want a BBQ and screaming and shouting going on in the lounge below - sorry.

Hopefully the Final will be on though, need to make sure he goes off to St Mary's for the football!!! :D

 

 

Also - we thought about taking the picnic hamper (drink and booze) and having some fun. Does anyone know whether we will have problems taking it in - or will someone be there saying - nope sorry only food purchased on premises is allowed!

Some info would be gratefully appreciated. :)

Thanks

Anyone know why Roman is not riding? He rode in the qualifier and would have been a decent spoiler round Blunsdon.

 

Roman married a Polish girl and has settled down here. He also rides on polish licence and from what I've heard he's had numerous conflicts with russian federation.

Thanks for that, shame though he isn't riding for the Russians they might just have had a squeek for 3rd.

Can anyone confirm that tickets for this event can be purchased on the day itself, or if not, other places they can be had?

 

Thanks
