Joanne 0 Posted January 15, 2008 Done the trip myself on the train and i am almost 100% sure it took about half that time.Get the train to the airport and Malmo is about 2 stops after that.Maybe an hour from Copenhagen City Centre to the track. I guess the morning of the GP might attract a few coming over from Sweden.Although i doubt a meeting of that level will attract many.The other year they held a 80cc test match between Denmark and Sweden then at the track in Copenhagen. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Iris123, we are staying in Malmo and are going to the GP from there. Thanks, anyway Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

iris123 20,992 Posted January 25, 2008 Seems Jonas Raun will take a year off this year.He hasn't enough money to ride and will try and get everything together to make a comeback in 2009.Was supposed to ride for Holsted in Denmark and Lodz in Poland.Sad news after he seemed on his way up the ladder.Showed lots of promise when i have seen him J.Raun Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
f-s-p 832 Posted January 25, 2008 (edited) This is a bummer I first saw Raun in 2004 in the Euro Champs at Elgane. Seemed very down to earth fellow with down to earth people behind him (his dad as the prime example), this compared to some chin-up rain-trough the nose-people never to be heard since. (EDIT: Just to add that that Raun was the (my) favourite to win. Did well too, but if I remember correctly the Swedes played it better.) I think I've even seen his first ever meeting in the UK (cheers pugwash) when he had a very unfortunate tumble all by himself. But this highlights the very situation the sport is in right now. I personally am in the support group of a Finnish rider (facing a MUCH tougher circumstances) and the money and effort to be put in before the season is... huge. EDIT2 a fraction later: A year off at this (his) stage of the career doesnt sound good. Edited January 25, 2008 by f-s-p Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
