JT 167 Posted June 14, 2004 Ritchie gave the drymls a lesson on how to stay on a bike on a small track live on tv last week. What by riding 2 mph? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lady of the manor 0 Posted June 15, 2004 Knock knock again, thought Ritchie was great to give Elite league a go especially knowing it would be on tv and all the "critics" (for want of a better word) would be watching & ready to slate him! He's taking all the chances to ride no matter what league, surely the best way to gain more experience, good luck to him! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Anders 0 Posted June 18, 2004 Going to be an interesting meeting in Vetlanda.Some quite good riders in here, for sure. Who do you think will progress to the final ? Besides Bjerre and Zagar obviously. I think I speak for most of our staff in Vetlanda when I say we are very pleased with the line-up for our semifinal. Should be a cracking meeting, weather permitting. Hopefully live updates should be available on our website ( www.vmselit.nu ) for those who are interested, more info when the meeting gets closer. I don´t have much knowledge of the Polish language but it seems that Krzysztof Kasprzak have got the Polish wild card to the meeting, according to Sportowefakty.pl, that makes the semifinal even harder. My predictions for top 8, in no particulary order: Kenneth Bjerre Fredrik Lindgren Mathias Schultz Matej Zagar Adrian Miedzinski Daniel Davidsson Krzysztof Kasprzak Pawel Hlib (Henrik Möller) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Sue Posted July 19, 2004 Hey, is someone going to Vetlanda?? Would be great if there would be someone to send an SMS with results, and I´d send results from Wiener Neustadt, so that both promoters can be online and inform the spectators from the other semifinal. if someone is going and has an mobile, please email me: sueneu@web.de would be great if we could be "online"!! Thanks in advance Sue from austia Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Doesn´t seem we can arrange that, our computer guy is out of town on Saturday. Anyway, I´ll send SMS to someone on the speedway mailing-list so updates should be available there, you may post them on here if you want. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest latvian-speedway Posted July 20, 2004 so, i think that Fritz Wallner will not start in Wiener Neustadt. there will start Denis Gizatullin, he is really going to take part in final:) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tomazpozrl 8 Posted July 21, 2004 so, i think that Fritz Wallner will not start in Wiener Neustadt.there will start Denis Gizatullin, he is really going to take part in final:) Yes Fritz Wallner will definitely not start in W.Neustadt. But I think neither will Denis Gizatullin ! The problem is that Austrian Federation as the organizer of this meeting has a right to have one austrian rider in the lineup. And as Fritzi is unable to take part in the race, Austrians have a right to put another Austrian rider in the field ! That means that Denis will still only be a reserve. I have heard some unconfirmed reports that austrian authorities have offered their place in the semifinal to slovenian federation and that Ales Kraljic was suggested as the replacement for Wallner. This suggestion was sent to FIM and we now have to wait and see what FIM will say about that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Sue Posted July 21, 2004 @tomazpozrl that´s true!!! OSK gave back the austrian place and will offer it to the slowenian federation! Is nice from the austrians, isn´t it??? Sue Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tomazpozrl 8 Posted July 21, 2004 Yes Sue, I agree it's very nice from Austrians. As I heard it happened mainly because of good relationship between austrian and slovenian federation. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
