Sandie Posted September 23, 2010 Report Share Posted September 23, 2010 I have been told by the press officer that the date will be Thursday 30th not Friday 1st due to it being Czech Golden Helmet weekend this week. Also re-admission tickets will be valid for Monday +£2 This information is now also on clubs website. Well lets hope the club (aka Mr DR) can get this well publicised - would hate to see the fans turn up on the 1st! That's an oopsie made by the club this evening I think!

Gemini Posted September 23, 2010 Report Share Posted September 23, 2010 (edited) Really weird weather. Started off from Leicester during a massive thunderstorm and torrential rain only to find once I was on the M69, a mile away, the road was bone dry all the way to Coventry. But as that black cloud settled over Brandon it looked pretty ominous and so it proved with heavy rain falling during heat 2. No chance of the meeting continuing but once back on the M69 it was still dry all the way back to the end of the motorway. Very unusual for Hinckley (half way) to miss out on bad weather as it's normally peeing it down there. Yes, thank heavens for Peter York eh? I don't think it's fair to blame Peter York in this instance as he must have got the details from somewhere.

Sandie Posted September 23, 2010 Report Share Posted September 23, 2010 I don't think it's fair to blame Peter York in this instance as he must have got the details from somewhere. Agreed Gem - If you looked at the Bees fixture list it had Friday 1st October listed as a reserve meeting date. I suspect in the few minutes between rain off and announcement someone probably told him this. At the time I said to the ladies 'with whom I was getting drenched with' - that was a quick announcement on the re-arranged date! But, as David Rowe has said on FB, we have a final at Brandon on Monday, so if anyone is not in the computer age, they will have the opportunity of hearing it over the tannoy then. Another wierd moment to this strange day, which includes Superbarts early rain off announcement! Curious day!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fourentee Posted September 24, 2010 Report Share Posted September 24, 2010 Yes, thank heavens for Peter York eh? Not his fault. The reserve date was nodded through quickly on a "should be OK" basis by the promotions and it was only detailed checks with the riders afterwards that threw up the problem.

Silver Bee Posted September 24, 2010 Report Share Posted September 24, 2010 It still should never have been announced as the first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speedybee Posted September 24, 2010 Report Share Posted September 24, 2010 So, is it 30th or 1st?? I went home last night and immediately cancelled a weekend away I have previously planned for October 1 and 2 so that I could attend the restaging.

Fourentee Posted September 24, 2010 Report Share Posted September 24, 2010 It still should never have been announced as the first. Sure. But I am (and this is a first) going into bat for Peter York as he seemed to be getting the blame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No blame for Peter on this one. He doesn't pick the dates - someone has to tell him. It was more like - this is the date and then - "oh no, I cant do that". "Im having my hair done that day" etc So the Thursday it is then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colincooke Posted September 24, 2010 Report Share Posted September 24, 2010 I think it was just a case of it being agreed before it was checked with all the riders & then it became apparent that some we're doing the Czech Golden Helmet weekend.
