Shadders Posted July 27, 2014 Report Share Posted July 27, 2014 (edited) Not convinced it will even be that good a meeting racing wise with one team of also rans and one with one world class riderYou're pretty much describing a typical Elite League meeting, apart from the world class rider bit. I watched it at the Grove pub in Berwick after the Rockets meeting was rained off. Just shows that even a fast, well prepared track can produce so so racing. How the hell did Italy qualify? Apart from Covati, they were of NL standard Edited July 27, 2014 by Shadders Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foreverblue Posted July 27, 2014 Report Share Posted July 27, 2014 I agree - I live close enough to go but am not - I know of many others doing the same - can't be doing with the hassle of traffic trying to get in and out of the place - some of these posters have no idea what a bottle-neck Kings Lynn is in the school holidays at weekends WITHOUT roadworks added to the chaos! Good luck to them but I shall enjoy it on TV as my subscription is already paid for to cover many sports I am interested in - whether I use it or not - its not on "pay to view"! I applaud your efforts to be helpful as a local despite some people's ungrateful attitude. There were no traffic problems, maybe earlier in the day there was but none by the time we got there.

Woz01 Posted July 27, 2014 Report Share Posted July 27, 2014 We got there at 5 and had no traffic problems whatsoever. Even managed to park in the stadium car park so made a quick exit too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maneacat Posted July 27, 2014 Report Share Posted July 27, 2014 F/blue and woz - pleased you encountered no problems but reading Bigballs post you must surely realise how lucky you were. Having travelled that road for many years I know when I am prepared to use it or not. As I live not far away I would not even leave home until 1 hour max. prior to a Lynn meeting and at that time I was enjoying a family Bar B Q with a couple of glasses of nicely chilled wine prior to sitting in my comfy armchair to view the meeting and having done so I definitely made the correct decision for me. The racing wasn't very exciting although GB did very well and I was pleased but it was always going to be between them and the Aussies going to the final and the other plus USA to the race-off.
