Just think how disappointed they might be in Sweden then as they have a vibrant 80cc scene.

I thought Batchelor had set the precedent last year or is my memory playing tricks on me? Agree with your second point though!

Yes up to 2010.

Peter Heather - Peter Ljung Adam Shoes Nicki - Adam Skornicki

Thanks r & r - got mine now!

They seem to be struggling converting KN to EUR at the moment!

In recent seasons it has been the highest placed riders from British Final of the previous year so:- Nicholls Harris Woffinden Kennett Barker Richardson Nicholls has withdrawn so Lewis Bridger and Stuart Robson are next in line.

I believe Linus Sundstrom has been nominated to represent Sweden

Thanks Dave - although I think many of us already realised that especially those who had picked up on other forms of social media on the day!

Chris Louis was also at Leicester on Saturday evening. Made me laugh when during the GP one of Pearson/Louis referred to Huewen and Ermolenko as back in the studio!

I remember seeing Shirra riding for Coatbridge when he was 16 and he was really impressive for someone so young.

All packed and ready to fly out in the morning - really looking forward to it!

I have decided to pay a visit to this Ghostwalker, Flights, Car and Hotel all sorted - thanks for your information earlier this week which helped me to make the decision.

Division One fixtures now out http://www.svemo.se/ImageVault/Images/id_6001/scope_0/ImageVaultHandler.aspx

Grindsted squad - fifth rider listed!

Don't forget Benjamin Barker!

Thanks GW - hopefully the following meetings in half-term week for me then (subject to weather of course):- Tuesday 5 June Elit Vetlanda v Piraterna Wednesday 6 June Vetlanda - Swedish National Championships Thursday 7 June Lejonen v Rospiggarna Friday 8 June ? Saturday 9 June Copenhagen - GP

I'm just about to book in some meetings in Sweden in the week prioir to the Copenhagen GP (which I had planned to go to anyway). This is likely to include two visits to Vetlanda on consecutive days (5 and 6 June) for the match against Piraterna and then the Swedish National Championships. I was just wondering if there was any danger that the league match might be held some other time given the proximity of the meetings. Any thoughts from our Swedish friends would be most appreciated.

Ah that explains it - I wondered why they kept asking me if I would like to have no balls!

You are correct ET as in 2001 I remember staying in the same hotel as the Pakistani cricket team!

It was changed to 29 September several months ago and is now on the FIM calendar on their website http://www.fim-live.com/en/sport/speedway-gp/qualifications/events/

Elitserien fixtures for 2012 These are on Valsarna's website although strangely they show the year as 2011 and not 2012! http://www.valsarna....serien_2012.pdf

Hi Tony - do you remenber Trevor Geer and Paul Gachet appearing in an episode of The Sweeney filmed at Wood Lane?

Me too Ole - done this for the last two seasons as well. As I recall last time it was Elitserien and Allsvenskan well before Xmas with Division One in the New Year. Enjoy your trip!
