Fingers and everything else crossed we can watch some racing in August! I’m sure every other promoter will take exactly the same precautions as Chris Louis has just said he’ll be doing at Ipswich. PPE for staff, socially distancing, hand sanitizing are all perfectly doable to make a couple of hours in the open air watching Speedway no more or less of a risk than most of us will encounter in our day to day lives. Let’s get on with it.

Getting frustrating now with this glorious weather. How good would it be getting to Foxhall tonight? What’s even more frustrating is seeing packed beaches all over the country, being able to drink a pint in a pub next weekend and then go and sit in a Cinema and watch a movie, but not able to watch Speedway outdoors! The 2 meters rule being reduced to 1(plus) would surely make it even easier for the majority if not all clubs to implement social distancing in Stadiums?

I certainly won’t be standing there for a couple of hours with a face mask on either. I love a bit of Speedway but not that much.

Think it’s widely accepted that the virus doesn’t transmit as well in the open air as opposed to indoors so can’t really compare the risks between indoor classrooms and outdoor stadia.

Only met London Witch the once after only knowing her from this forum, lovely lady. So very sad bless her.

Interesting thread, well worth a read.

First one up this coming Thursday, Ipswich Vs Swindon 98!

Crikey I haven’t had that since I was a kid! Used to love a bit of chocolate custard

Must admit I’ve followed this thread from the beginning and found myself shaking my head in disbelief at some of the contributions. Steve Irving you could have literally made a greatest hits from Bwitcher alone, but I didn’t expect anything less from him in all honesty. Some of the others have been disappointing to say the least.
