  1. Past hour
  2. I hear you. It’s beyond boring, but we have people looking in on a daily basis so just trying to put people in the picture as best I can.
  3. Didn’t they say that last week? and the week before and the week before and the week ……. ( you get the idea )
  4. We drove to the German GP too and it was a good experience except for no car parking at the stadium meaning we had to get trains and buses
  5. We went in the car, drive out Thursday night, stayed in ZG Friday, stayed in Wrocław Saturday and drove straight back to ferry after gorzow meeting, back in England Monday night, when 1 drives the other sleeps so we get plenty of sleep between us
  6. my experience included 60 hours on a coach and 14 hours on trains.🤪but for this year me and my brother gone halves on a camper van, so gonna get more meetings in this year.😎
  7. I went to 3 of the overseas GPs last year in addittion to Belle Vue. Each has its own pros and cons and difficult to do a true comparison. People will make a value judgement based on what they are looking to get out of it. I think the SGP seems to be moving to smaller venues, with an inevitable increase in ticket costs. I'd encourage everyone to try various SGPs, and, if they can, to go to a league match as well if one is on before or after the SGP
  8. Today
  9. Thanks. i was just trying to understand the cost comparisons and the whole experience if for example in both cases an overnight stay or two nights stay was necessary with travelling costs etc. adding in food etc. Not an exact science but the one thing that the U K cannot compete on with for example a Polish GP where in terms of the size of the crowd and the atmosphere it is far superior but obviously smaller venues may probably go head to head and be comparable. I still feel the ticket prices are over the top for what you are getting but that is just a personal opinion, others may think otherwise. Anyway enjoy the meeting and savour the memories. Long may a GP be held in GB.
  10. Sorted now , I was trying to do it on my phone then decided to fire up the big boy and all sorted now. Brummie supporter, so no team or stadium, Im thinking lots more people will be in the same boat. Some questions not needed, BSN. Now or we need is the NDL fixtures and we will be able to plan some meeting to go to. Nearest tracks Leicester, oxford. Buxton, Belle vue. Tracks to get too Scunny, Redcar, bank holidays going to be busy. Its going to be a strange season with no team to support. See you trackside people, have fun. sorted now, Iwas trying to do it on
  11. It’ll be a few days after that I’m afraid. Looking at middle of next week.
  12. Buggered if I know why they need your age. Perhaps just a statistic regarding audiences ages.
  13. i did too but had a better experience than you i did 3 meetings that weekend. 😁
  14. Possibly but I go to the GPs for the experience not necessarily the racing, got tickets for Wrocław GP because the experience is amazing
  15. filling the form is a pain, DOB 1957 it means I have to scroll back to 1957 and as I dont have a team or stadium anymore I wont have a favorite team. No point filling that in, I watch just speedway in which ever league I feel like going to watch. What has my DOB got to do with the website.
  16. They didn't even have to be up to the job... just British (ish) and willing 😂
  17. But what about all the time he spent dwindling down the squad of riders to the final three. Then the numerous phone calls to all those riders that just missed out on the final team selection. (More like, can I scrape together three riders up to the job).
  18. Are there any domestic fixtures? PCMT, 2 SGP's and that's yer lot at the moment 🤷‍♂️
  19. Credit where it's due, he did help bring home the big one... but it was hardly a job that was eating into his time.
  20. My tickets for Torun were 300 zloty, so circa £62. I would intend to sit in the temp stand at BV - so circa £75 per meeting. Given the difference in cost of living I'd say Belle Vue is comparativrly cheaper. Once I add on the cost of travel to Poland, hotels and transport it will cost me much more than Belle Vue will ( no hotel required ). Of course, at Torun I will be undercover as opposed to uncovered at BV, but you pay your money and take your choice. I had s fsbulous time at last year's BV SGP so consider it worth the risk.
