i dont know much about them except that they indeed deals with sanitation and etc. The name is IKAROS (with a k) here are their website: http://www.ikaros.net

David Howe and Mariusz Wegrzyk have been signed by Örnarna. i think Wegrzyk is on loan from Lejonen who have too many riders.

Magnus "Zorro" Zetterström and Mikael Max have been confirmed as new signings by Ikaros Smederna. Linus Eklöf will also stay with Ikaros Smederna the same goes for Wieslaw Jagus and Krzystof Kasprzak. the only one "missing" now is Daniel King.

Swedish Elitserien team Smederna have reached an agreement with a company named Ikaros about Ikaros putting their name on the team and arena. the new name will be Ikaros Smederna and the new arena name will be Ikaros Stadion. the deal is for 3 years. more info here: http://www.ekuriren.se/link.php?id=766745 and here: http://www.smederna.nu/?page=news&newsid=882

Edward Kennet returns to the highest league in Sweden. He will ride for Vargarna next season.

Västervik have signed kevin doolan who have been riding for vargarna during the 2007 and 2008 seasons.

according to a local newspaper Zorro will sign for Smederna tomorrow. anyway go here http://www.na.se/artikel.asp?intId=1412776...strMeddelande=2 and vote for Zorro.

Vetlanda i think.

Getingarna and Hammarby will use the same track, Gubbängens IP, to which you can get bus or subway from Stckholm. Both these teams rides on thursdays starting at 19.00

Actually Both Smederna-Eskilstuna, Rospiggarna- Hallstavik and vargarna-Norrköpingare Easy to get to. Since you are flying with Ryan Air you will probably land on Stockholm-Skavsta (Nyköping) whichs about 100km south of Stockholm. Eskilstuna is about 80Km north of Nyköping and you get there by travelling with the "Flybussarna" (Airport coaches) (directroute). for Hallstavik, Airport coaches or train to Stockholm and then bus or train to Hallstavik. Bus/train To Norrköping.

Jagoda has been riding some matches in Russia.

Elit Vetlanda announced their squad today. The squad contains 2 newcomers: Adrian Gomolski from Valsarna and Patrick Hougaard from Griparna. Notablr id that this confirms that Rune Holta and also Morten Risager will leave Elit Vetlanda.

hey Z1, is it 100% certain now with Z2?

the dates arent confirmed yet, they are preliminary and may be changed.

young Slovakian prospect Martin Vaculik have decided to stay with Smederna for 2009.

the first round, which still is preliminary, look like this: Piraterna - Lejonen Vargarna - Smederna Vetlanda - Västervik Indianerna - Rospiggarna I think the date is Tuesday April 28th.

Adrian Miedzinski moves from Indianerna from Kumla to Vargarna from Norrköping.

Tomasz Gollob will stay with Västervik for another 2 seasons.

Niclas see tomazpozrl's post on this threads first page, you have a link there. 3Its looks like a quite large track but with almost no seated stands.

i was a bit unclear, the official statistics of bonus point doesnt exist any longer however i think riders are still getting paid for bonus points.

2005 was the latest season bonus points was used. I know sportowefakty have statistics but it lookes like they stopped updating it after 2/3s of the season.

Mariusz there are no bonus points in Sweden. they removed that a few years ago.
