Weekend before Easter - March 23rd

March 23rd next year?

That would be my 40th birthday!

Is it unreasonable to hope that the speedway community might all pitch in and pay for my flights, hotel and tickets for the GP as a birthday gift??

Henry, you've got Buckley's! If you do make it I'll be glad to buy you a beer!

Be careful, Dave....I need to do something special for that birthday, and a trip to NZ might be the thing...You might find yourself buying me a beer, and you didn't put any limit on the size of that beer. so if I do make it over, I'll have a 50 liter keg, thanks

England are playing New Zealand in a test match at Auckland 22-26 March.

A combined trip to watch cricket & speedway?

Whilst the European GP's can't usually avoid clashing with other big sporting events due to there being so many, i'm a little surprised that care wasn't taken to avoid a clash in New Zealand. It certainly cuts down on prospective coverage for the SGP across the media. Maybe it is the only date available for various reasons?

IT was ... Easter is early next year and BSI mindful that riders need to be in Europe at that time.

Test cricket in nz would be very lucky to get a couple of thousand people last years gp got 15000 so not quite sure what your point is? if anything crowds to both may benefit slightly due to extra brit presence in Auckland

Do what we do in Darwin, Kiwi - get cable and record it!

 

Thinking of cancelling now I know the Barmy Army will be there - I have no desire to spend any time in Mt Eden.

I'm a bit worried if there's test cricket its bound to rain
