diamonds_are_forever 0 Posted December 1, 2004 Yes Lonigo looks like the one I might aim for, whats the best airline to use and airport to arrive at in Italy as not too sure where Lonigo is ! Is there going to be any cheap airlines going there or nearby? Well I've got a quote of £81.96 return to Venice with easyjet flying out Friday returning Monday flying via birmingham, but if you fly to Verona that would be nearer. Guess it just depends on which airlines fly from your local airport. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HenryW 1,178 Posted December 1, 2004 10th SEPTEMBER ITALY VICENZA-LONIGO PROVISIONAL I guess it's time for The Fonz to dust down those kevlars again. Who is going in 2006 in GP of LATVIA ??? I've seen rumours that they were interested in holding a round. Can you give any indication whether this is likely to happen, or just a dream of the Latvian promoters?

Rob B 1,256 Posted December 1, 2004 I was thinking that maybe City Of Manchester Stadium could be a good venue for Speedway. Its in the North instead of the South plus its had an athletics track in it. No it doesn't, the athletics track was ripped out straight after the commonwealth games to make way for more seating.

Guest BilaHora Posted December 1, 2004 (edited) Mr Hazzman Regarding the City of Manchester stadium, I believe that the athletics track was removed to enable additional seating to be put in place. As far as I am aware, the running track was removed and extra seating installed beneath ground level. This could limit the available area to install a speedway track.

Can you give any indication whether this is likely to happen, or just a dream of the Latvian promoters? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> it isn't dream, it is reality you know : fact that Latvia is a small country doesn't mean that we couldn't make something like GP round. We have very good stadium, but there are many things to do in other. Hope there will be allright and in 2006 we will have GP round of Latvia in Daugavpils Edited December 2, 2004 by latvian-speedway Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gooner_girl4eva 0 Posted December 2, 2004 Thanks guys for your help about Lonigo, had a good look at the map now So at the minute you can't book online with easyjet as the route isn't for sale, can you book over the telephone or does it have to be after a certain date? Hoping to make the Italian GP a mini holiday Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Oh, and wait until the GP is confirmed Enjoy yourselves ! Rico Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
