Preston Comet Posted January 24 Report Share Posted January 24 Morning all, We've just booked for a couple of GP's abroad, Landshut and Prague, and as the title says, it'll be the 1st time abroad for a Speedway GP. Was just wondering if anyone has any hints or tips.. We're flying to both, car hire from Munich, and staying in Landshut. Flying to Prague, and planning taxi and tram, as we're staying close to the track. Thanks in advance folks, and all the best 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So much history to see ,Prague Castle, Old Town Square, Charles Bridge to name just a few. Anyone who doesn't go there is wasting their trip to what is a wonderful city. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One word of warning though Prague is the pick pocket capital of Europe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It certainly is, & has been for many years.. Over all my years of visiting the city I have seen so many incidents , after a while it becomes relatively easy to spot the criminals as they all conduct themselves in a similar manner.

full-throttle Posted January 24 Report Share Posted January 24 I stayed in Prague 1, right next door was a bar 60k a pint, that's £2. I also found a bar just the other side of Charles Bridge that was good value. at the airport get the 59 bus to Divorka Station, than a tram to the centre. Mustek underground station will take you close to the Marketa, then maybe a 15-20 walk from station to stadium seniors have free public transport in Czech, but if challenged must produce ID Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Technik Posted January 24 Report Share Posted January 24 Prague is one of the most beautiful cities I have been so much history, but I have to agree it is problem with the crime that go'es on. The weekends are a big issue as it has become a popular Stag/Hen party venue. If you enjoy speedway & sight seeing I would recommend the Golden Helmet weekend in Pardubice & incorperate the Tomicek Memorial at Prague on the Monday 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As said, just be careful wherever you go. Wallet front pocket, rucksack face the front on route, look before you take pics on your phone. Apart from that enjoy. It’s the same in London.

Thanks in advance folks, and all the best As long as you don’t expect much racing action (it’s always much better when you’re there, as per Cardiff) you will still have a great time.
