iris123 20,994 Posted October 20, 2005 (edited) Anyway if it's coastal tourist areas they want,then what better than Stralsund(recommended by M.Ferjan). Lovely old town,with plenty of tourist attractions.Situated right by Germany's biggest island Rügen,summer playground of Erich Honneker.Part of Pommerania, it shares history with Poland and was also part of the Swedish empire at one time,so already has lots of interest for two of the main nations.Also for all their faults the communist government were very keen to promote FKK(Freikörperkultur or naturism),so not only are there plenty of babes on the beaches, a large proportion don't have any clothes on Oh,i forgot,there's also the Beer Edited October 20, 2005 by iris123 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steve Shovlar 10,439 Posted October 20, 2005 I could just as easily turn around and say that Swindon is the easiest to get to because it only takes me 20 minutes whereas Poole would take in the region of 3-4 hours. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> What? Are you cycling to Poole Shortoi? Poole to Swindon is 90 minutes in the car. So if you live 20 minutes north of Swindon is, say Cirencester, it would only take 2 hours!

tarabanko 5 Posted October 20, 2005 (edited) I hope Speedway WC get a chance outside Sweden, Poland and England. I liked to see Russia staging the final rounds. Could be a enormous boost for them as a federation. Edited October 20, 2005 by tarabanko Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Poland was amazing last year, they definitely should have a round. Edited October 22, 2005 by ha en bra födelsedag Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Or Landshut, which hosted one of the qualifiers for the wtc a few years ago. Edited October 23, 2005 by ha en bra födelsedag Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Crump99 4,476 Posted October 25, 2005 (edited) I heard all rounds are to take place in Poole. BSI want a repeat of two years ago and rather than go to two different tracks, will base the whole show in the UK's premier speedway town. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I don't think they'll be able to stage it in the UK's premier speedway town because it is the middle of the event season and I fear that the East of England Showground may be in use. Therefore I suppose BSI will chase the weather, so if Eastbourne can't do it then you're in Edited October 25, 2005 by Crump99 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
