Snyper1010 Posted June 25, 2009 Report Share Posted June 25, 2009 (edited) according to the BBC weather map thingy all rain should be clear by 6pm and anything before that will be patchy.

Najjer Posted June 25, 2009 Report Share Posted June 25, 2009 Funny how Bunyan and Complin were both good enough to ride in the British Final. They qualified using last years GSAs. according to the BBC weather map thingy all rain should be clear by 6pm and anything before that will be patchy. Hmmm just checked again its met to be rain right through the night tonight. Starting to break up about 9am Should be an awesome race track then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BongoBrian Posted June 25, 2009 Report Share Posted June 25, 2009 Update on the weather shows that the worst of it is likely to have passed by mid-day on the Friday, with it then likely to stay dry until Sunday. I think as long as the track doesn't get a lengthy spell of persistant rain through Friday night (not likely with the intermitant nature of thundery showers) and with the reasonably high daytime temperatures adding a drying effect, then the forecast is looking a lot better now than it did a day or so ago. We also have a high pressure area building from the azores and wind speed at 12 notts from the.... Nah, only kidding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colincooke Posted June 25, 2009 Report Share Posted June 25, 2009 And Stoke simply werent good enough Better luck next year The only reason Stoke aren't in is cos Compo had a bad start to the season, Bunyip is gutted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colincooke Posted June 25, 2009 Report Share Posted June 25, 2009 (edited) For those of you coming down to the pairs and the weather forecast does not look brillant , but the oak tree is a strange place due to Brent knoll it has it own micro climate . I have driven down from Bristol with it tipping down and i mean bucketfuls of the stuff , to get the knoll for it to be dry all day . I have found a couple of webcams of the M5 Junction at Highbridge about 1 mile from the track , plus a webcam of Burnham sea front so to help you all . The motorway will be busy for sure and as most of the glastonbury folks will be in the event it will make it easier i hope . Guide time from M4/M5 crossover where i live very good traffic 45 mins , heavy traffic 2hrs 30 mins to do 35 miles based on 4 years of travelling the route on a Friday http://www.bbc.co.uk/bristol/webcams/camer...on=bbc_new_west http://www.burnham-on-sea.com/webcam/ Wishing all speedway fans a safe trip to which ever event you chose and may the best team win If you're traveliing from Cardiff to Highbridge be aware of major roadworks at J28-30 on the M4, plus at J24.

mother goose Posted June 25, 2009 Report Share Posted June 25, 2009 The only reason Stoke aren't in is cos Compo had a bad start to the season, Bunyip is gutted. not as bad as lyons at brum but as per usual bspa have made the rules up as they go along to keep certain people happy imho take a look at the official reply dave tattum got from the bspa http://www.potterspower.com/D/news.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snyper1010 Posted June 25, 2009 Report Share Posted June 25, 2009 So he is bitter that his riders werent good enough when they should of been. Also maybe Stoke can get someone that knows where to use "to" and "too" on their site. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stick to getting behind your own team instead of having childish digs at other clubs that won`t be going to the pairs Good luck to all teams, hopefully be a good meeting for the supporters that are lucky enough to be in included.

crazysue Posted June 26, 2009 Report Share Posted June 26, 2009 Been so busy stressing with getting my assignment in and getting things ready for Cardiff, that I have completely forgotten to get a texter for this meeting and I leave here in 3 and a bit hours! Is there anyone going to this meeting who would be able to text updates to the updates site? If so, could you please either leave a message here or send me an email or pm. After about 10.45ish, I will not be able to pick up any private messages or emails as I will be out of here! Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big lad Posted June 26, 2009 Report Share Posted June 26, 2009 Very unjust that the Stoke pair are not in this meeting.How can you make up the rules as you go along? Anyway lets have the rule stated on here so we all know for next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trees Posted June 26, 2009 Report Share Posted June 26, 2009 Why don't they just say the teams who have the highest averaged pairs up to a fortnight ago? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
