It looks like a couple of buses or maybe a direct train is the best option but advice would be appreciated. Cannot wait. We have done the train before from Torun to Gdansk, really easy and a direct journey too. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Flix Bus (formerly Polskibus) do a direct bus from Gdansk to Torun several times a day, from about a fiver each way. Sometimes quicker than the train, as on some trains you have to change at Bydgoszcz. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thank you. We used the train last year and it was pretty much hassle free, very impressed. 1 hour ago, Tactical Joker said: What time / day do you arrive in Gdansk? I can then advise train times.

Tactical Joker 60 Posted August 19, 2022 (edited) 14.15 at Gdansk Airport won't get you to Torun until 18.45 by train, so hopefully the bus is a better option. In previous years the tram to the stadium has been free after 15.00 if you have a speedway ticket so worth checking that applies this year too.

Book seats online before you go, then get the train from the airport to Gdansk Glowny (main train station). The bus station is directly behind it, literally a 1 minute walk. Car hire is also not that expensive and it's one motorway between Gdansk and Torun. That's what we're doing. Edited August 19, 2022 by OML 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We've fly into Gdansk & land in the morning, booked a rental car which was £80 for the weekend. The drive down is easy & take around 2hrs. Staying in Torun which helps.

racers and royals 8,736 Posted September 19, 2022 Wildcard to be named shortly i would assume- no obvious candidate - Maybe Swidnicki the new Polish U 21 champion or Kubera. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So I'm assuming Lebedevs > Thomsen, Miskowiak > Fricke and that's that. Had it in my head Michelsen was out again hence Hansen & Becker but of course not.
