iris123 Posted April 24, 2015 Report Share Posted April 24, 2015 Let's face it there have been plenty of meetings(and lower standard at that) held in far worse conditions than Warsaw.I remember a couple of league meetings from Belle Vue a few years ago when even the home riders couldn't cope or control their bikes in the bends.Gjedde and Hougaard I think were a couple.When they went into the corners it seemed pure luck where they would end up.I gave up watching Elite League at that stage...........

Yup, I was also there for that. Belle Vue was packed to the rafters, and the meeting took place in diabolical conditions.

Think we assumed it would be called off after a crash around heat 14. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cityrebel Posted April 25, 2015 Report Share Posted April 25, 2015 The two that spring to mind for me are the world team cup qualifier at reading in 1979 and the Grand Prix final at Wimbledon in 1980. Both of these meetings were run in a sea of mud! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
