Poland is very safe if observing the usual things you would normally do on holiday. Very cheap beds, food and drink. I haven't been to Warsaw which is roughly 50,000 attendance. But Torun is a lovely small tourist city where you can walk about easily but book early for a bed. Maybe fly to Bydgoczsz (nice enough small town) as that is only an hour away. A taxi from the airport is only £35 after haggling but bus or train very cheap. I've read on this forum that the train network is very good so you can get to Torun from anywhere. Everyone should go to Torun at least once. A great racetrack, stadium and atmosphere.. Not sure of capacity but maybe 20000 ?

No dispute it was a poor performance but the other guy wanted him sacked and forgets he is above all other Poole riders in the averages.

Then you would have to sack all your team. Everyone of them has had at least one bad night this season. When Middlo retires you must step into his shoes as your man management is on another level to the rest of us.

He is 5th in the UK averages and above every other Poole rider. Ever had a bad day at work yourself ? Or are you Mr Perfect ?

nothing to lose bar a big crash into the fence, vision was an obvious problem in the semi final.

Kildemand may not be 100% fit as he had a crash in Sweden on Tuesday. Haven't heard when he expects to be back

maybe we should have a referendum about that ?

minority sport is my guess but you would have to ask the CEO of ITV4 for his answer what is so important about ITV4 ? how many viewers do they get for a sporting event ?

Cycling and athletics are full of drug abuse, that is proven and still on-going. What is worse ?. Tai swearing once, using a word we probably hear every day in our normal life, or putting on TV a drug riddled sport ?

maybe the two GP riders are certainties for the main team. Nielsen using the home leg to pick his 4th rider with Iversen as Captain.

OK thanks. Do you know how much it costs and how long is the journey.

From a visit to the Olympics I can tell you there is loads to do around the stadium area. Plenty of hotels too unlike Cardiff. No roof in Stratford is a downside. But I agree that it would be a terrible shame to move the event from Cardiff and doubt it would happen. Why not have two GP's as in other countries. But Manchester will get first choice if we do get a 2nd GP. Saw the GP replay last night. The racing was very good.

Gorzow can be reached by train from many Polish cities. Maybe that is a way to keep cost down ?

Dull one sided meeting mainly due to a poor track. Excuses with the weather and lack of watering fair defence..

probably right but Tai had a season early in his career than opened his eyes to the top level.

Riders who do hand signals are show pony. They only point to the inner line due to the cut out. .

Thanks. Why is Emil important ? Do they race each other instead of team riding ?

Is Pedersen dropped or injured ? I read he has a broken finger and knee ligament problems.

Nicholls being unavailable for 3 year has nothing to do with 2016. The reasons he didn't ride were valid and he wasn't the only one as Lee Richardson also gave up Team GB. Good point. Bomber might have a good Cardiff after a good Prague ? Still one month to go. I hope Rosco will hold practise at BV to aid picking his main four. Toss a coin for the Res.

You must have been watching a different 10 heats than me as it was dross so I did turn over as the GP is on BT Sport. As for the atmosphere I agree it did look a lively crowd. And I also said the rain played its part with the track.

Crowd liked it but later results show it may never happen again. Very poor meeting with zero close racing or passing.

As with Berwick on Monday this is very poor viewing. The rain has played its part but the track looks so narrow it would be impossible to pass on any day.

never in my team as he isn't good enough. One flash in the pan meeting on a wet track means nothing. Woofy Bomber Cook Nicholls Lambert four from those five with final selection based on form going into the meeting or maybe Our Team Manager will arrange a training session at Belle Vue to time the riders in practise races.

agree but maybe Rosco will be arranging some behind closed doors practise. GB riders do not ride all week so they have time to do testing and timing.
