Slany is around 40k, and you can drive it in about 45 minutes to hour.

 

Liberec is about 120k from Prague, and you should be able to drive it in about one and half to two hours.

 

The Slany meeting starts at 6pm, and we are await confirmation of the Liberec start time.

 

Those who are on the Travel Plus European 12 day tour, and the weekend tour to Prague, will have the opportunity to visit both tracks, as we will be running optional excursions to both meetings.

 

As an update, we have just been advised that the Liberec meeting has been cancelled. As far as we know the meeting at Divisov is still on, and we are awaiting confirmation as to the details.

 

As Travel Plus clients will be aware, (well those of them who have travelled with us to Prague before!!!) Divisov is the home of the Jawa factory, and is about 40 minutes to an hours drive from central Prague.

Fri 25.08. A. Vilde Memorial  at Slaný

 

 

Is it possible to catch a train to Slany and if so does anyone know how far the track is from the station?

 

According to http://www.volny.cz/speedway.slany/kalendar.htm I think the meeting starts at 5:30 and not 6:00PM

 

Also does anyone have any ideas as to the lineup?

As I understand it first race is planned for 18.00, with presentations earlier. However it always pays to get there in good time.

 

Meeting is a Junior International between Czech Republic and Poland, plus some vet races.

 

Sorry can't help with the trains.

Panic yesterday when I got an email from our apartment manager. He stated that our apartment would not now be available because "Truhlarska don't flowing a watter during your stay". Great.

He also went on to say that he had changed our booking to a brand new apartment in a better location off Karlova. Phew. :D

So after you have all got drunk in the Old Square it's all back to our place. :D

 

:blink::blink:

And ours!!!

 

I am doing last minute bartering.

We have a lovely big apartment booked but the owners have increased the price (not by a lot)so I am busy checking out last minute offers through other agents.

 

Had a great one lined up - but just found out its not available till the Friday - we travel on the Thursday! Blast!!!! :(

OH dear,  :rolleyes:

 

hope you keep me and mine on the right track from there on.

 

Any news on the flights yet?

 

A letter from Jimbo should be winging its way to all those on the tour, and hopefully there shouldn't be a problem.

 

It was interesting to see, that even yesterday, when scores of flights were cancelled and delayed the Manchester flight got into Budapest just 15 minutes late.

 

Just be aware of any announcements concerning the restrictions on hand luggage, and you would be well advised to turn up at the airport a little earlier than usual.

 

As for currency, I wouldn't bother with getting too much / any Slovakian currency, as Travel Plus have laid on a meal in the hotel for the Sunday evening, and we will be leaving for Krakow early Monday.
