Conkers 67 Posted March 7, 2017 (edited) Hi Is anyone going to Inzell for Team Final & flying into Salzburg on Friday morning & then travelling straight down to Inzell? If you are taking a taxi would you consider sharing the cost. If not any suggestions on most inexpensive way or best route? I'm flying into Munich, Friday then train to Traunstein, followed by a taxi to Inzell. If you get the Salzburg Airport Bus to Salzburg Station, you can get a train to Traunstein (approx 27 minutes)and costs around €15, then a taxi from Traunstein to Inzell is around €30 but if you get to Traunstein around 1-15pm, I would be willing to share a cab, as I get in around that time. Or you can follow Iris 123's advice and get the senic bus ride, which takes longer but is quite breathtaking if you've never been before..

steve69 49 Posted March 8, 2017 Many thanks Conkers, The scenic route sounds like a nice way to see the area as its our first visit. But will bear in mind your offer should we decide to take that route. Should you wish to say hi at the stadium we will be near the start with an England flag.

Conkers 67 Posted March 13, 2017 ASTANA EXPO FIM ICE SPEEDWAY GLADIATORS WORLD TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP INZELL, GERMANY, MARCH 11-12 RESULT: RUSSIA 60 (30+30) Igor Kononov 22 (11+11), Dmitri Koltakov 22 (11+11), Dmitri Khomitsevich 16 (8+8), AUSTRIA 45 (22+23) Franz Zorn 29 (15+14), Charly Ebner 16 (7+9), Josef Kreuzberger 0 (DNR+0), GERMANY 41 Gunther Bauer 28 (14+14). Max Niedermaier 12 (8+4), Hans Weber 1 (0+1) SWEDEN 39 Niklas Svensson 20 (10+10), Ove Ledstrom 12 (1+11), Stefan Svensson 7 (7+DNR) CZECH REP 25 Jan Klatovsky 16 (11+5), Lukas Hutla 5 (0+5), Andrej Divis 4 (4+0), FINLAND 25 (11+14) Tomi Tani 11 (4+7), Antti Aakko 8 (2+6), Mats Jarf 6 (4+2) SWITZERLAND 14 (8+6) Simon Gartmann 7 (5+2), Ronny Haring 6 (3+3), Thomas Cavigelli 1 (0+1) I'm told all is not well in the German camp as Bauer has said they won as a duo, to which Weber has responded with a lengthy statement. Perhaps someone with Facebook who speaks German could elaborate, but looks like Bauer is still trying to be Gunther No Mates again. Apologies again for the late posting but I am beginning to loose patience with the poor German WiFi in hotels! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Apologies again for the late posting but I am beginning to loose patience with the poor German WiFi in hotels! I did see Bauers statement yesterday or maybe this morning.Thought it a bit funny mentioning winning a medal for the first time in 8 years with Max.Tbh i thought it was a dig at Pletschacher seeing as he is normally in the team and they have been out of the top 3.As you say,typical Bauer.Was trouble in the camp before Weber came along,so he obviously doesn't get on with a few people,not just the one Had a look and couldn't see anything.Maybe he has deleted the statement?Or maybe he has more than one Facebook profile.Think he had a strange name before,but i am not friends with him or Bauer or anyone in the German team,so missed it......

britmet 233 Posted March 19, 2017 Nordic final cancelled today at Örnsköldsvik due to spring and soft ice. Everyone was there and they tried but it wasn't meant to be. . Will there be a new date ? - or off for the year ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ghostwalker 1,858 Posted March 19, 2017 .Will there be a new date ? - or off for the year ? We're 2/3 into March already and I don't think it will be cold enough again this spring to give it a new try, at least not in Örnsköldsvik or on natural ices. Possibly if you go in northern most areas like Kiruna but I doubt that they have any suitable tracks there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What i find interesting is a few years back Tobi said he wouldn't ride in the PL because of the lack of air fences,and now he takes up Ice Speedway!!!!
