Mark Posted July 9, 2014 Report Share Posted July 9, 2014 Holders wrist isn't the problem, he has now discovered he has a hair-line fracture in his next. He could be outside the top 8 come Saturday night. Not good news for the ex World Champ. Could he be out the SWC too ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ProperSport Posted July 10, 2014 Report Share Posted July 10, 2014 (edited) I love the whole weekend experience of the GP - setting off from Sunny Preston ( not often I type that ) early tomm stop at Kidderminster to pick up another Speedway Fanatic and head off to the Pairs at Somerset , stay in a lovely B&B run by Sue in a beautiful village on the outskirts of Newport ....get into Cardiff nice and early meet up with my dad who is travelling down on the Sat with my 2 Nephews ( New to the Sport aged 11 and 13 ) watch Woffie win the GP , back to Newport and the Annual Visit to the superb Curry House , total indulgence , travel back to Preston dropping me old mucker off on the way - arrive home few hrs kip and then set off 7am the next day for a family holiday to France and Belgium ( doing vast areas of WW1 for the Centenary ) and then finish off at Euro Disney .........if it all comes off a superb 17 days off work ( that in itself is enough ) Cannot wait Chris Edited July 10, 2014 by ProperSport 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
New Science Posted July 10, 2014 Report Share Posted July 10, 2014 whatever the crowd fig, nigel pearson will bung 6,000 on..at least!The guy in our local paper has quoted 50,000.Although this is the same guy who waxes lyrical about every Heathens 'ommering' and says Wolves regularly get big crowds.I think Pearson is his mentor so your right he has probably added 6,000 on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clockwood123 Posted July 10, 2014 Report Share Posted July 10, 2014 Hi we are going to Cardiff on Saturday, have never been before so was hoping that some of you regular's out there could help with the following questions. * Where is the best place to park, we are staying over night in Newport. * What time does the racing start ( what time do we need to get to our seats ). * What time does the meeting usually finish. * Are there plenty of places nearby to eat either before or afterwards. Thanks in advance for your help, looking forward to a good meeting with either Tai or Chris winning! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShirleyBee Posted July 10, 2014 Report Share Posted July 10, 2014 Is there anybody looking in at the moment who lives in the Newport area who can tell me if the A4810 which links Junction 23A on the M4 with the A48 southern distributor road is passable. The reason I ask, is that I intend to use it on Saturday to get to Cardiff but when I look on Google satellite 'street view' the road appears blocked along Queens Way. Any help will be much appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks in advance for your help, looking forward to a good meeting with either Tai or Chris winning! Park in Newport, get the train down. Costs about £5 for a return. Cardiff station is right by the stadium. Racing starts at 5.15. Parade at 5pm. Entertainment (whatever it is, usual crap) at 4pm. I tend to aim to get in for 5 by the time I stumble in, have a wee and chat to someone it's nearer 5.15 Should be done by 8.15ish Loads of places to eat. The stadium is in the centre of Cardiff. The city centre is grouped with high-street shops merging into local shops in the arcades (some great shops in there btw! I've spent hours in there and I'm not really a shopper) that merge into the bars, pubs, clubs and restaurants. Or you can always make your way down to the Bay - get a boat form Bute Park or just on a bus for about £2 each - won't be as busy and there plenty to chose from. I'd love to see Bomber win again but I think we'll have to be happy with a heat win Is there anybody looking in at the moment who lives in the Newport area who can tell me if the A4810 which links Junction 23A on the M4 with the A48 southern distributor road is passable.

It's only very recently been opened to the public which is why it's not googlemapped/streetviewed too well.

SteveLyric2 Posted July 11, 2014 Report Share Posted July 11, 2014 For those that may not have seen it today, there is a great double page spread on Tai and the British GP in the Sun newspaper. Aside from peoples' opinions about that particular paper - its nevertheless a great piece of publicity by Russell Lanning in the country's biggest selling national daily!! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
