    Just a quick update. The site has now surpassed 10,000 records over 8 years' work. Frigbo is working on a news and events section from 1965, which I have started linking in to the rider records, and will continue over the winter when I've finished the last few meetings remaining from the 2017 season.

    Steve Hone and Keith Lawson (and one or two others who have been individually credited) have been kind enough to allow us to use their photos, which we are also working into the rider records, and Frigbo is also updating the team and rider stats for the end of season averages from this year.

    The plan over the close season, once all that is done, is to continue with the yearly averages from 1972 (previous seasons are done) and possibly then start indexing teams from foreign leagues.

    Thanks to everyone who has joined us - it's nice to know we have your support and that there are people looking in on us from time to time - and we wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

    Being that he has taken on Nicki P in the past I'm more liable to take a view against Pawlicki, but the more I watch him the more I realise he's been taught to ride hard, but also to take hard riding. If he bailed out every time someone came near him with a bike I might have a different view, but he just rides speedway for the love of it, as far as I can see, not to play games.

    Well Lindgren deserved that. Thought once Doyle hit the front it was game over but got beaten up by Lindgren and Magic.

     

    So glad to see Magic put 2016 behind him. Looks fast and aggressive. Very good gp.

     

    Janowski always has one fantastic GP. Now it's over and done with I don't expect a recurrence any time soon.

    I'm not sure there are the words to describe that GP. Perfect really, what more could you ask for?

    More speed for Nicki P? ;) Agreed about it being a great meeting though - and that's from a hard to please cynic!

     

    Edit: Don't think either Nicki or Antonio did anything wrong in either of their moves in the heat, and pleased to see Emil walk away from that nasty looking crash.

    was planning to go to Hastlebro the day before the GP (23/06) but that fixture has now disappeared so I can only assume it was due to be against Munkebo yet the website is still showing some of their fixtures

     

    As I understand they are looking into the possibility of a track share before they pull the plug completely on this season.
