"21 czw finał MDMP stosownie do regulaminu" Please explain!? It's the thursday before Bydgoszcz GP

News from Sweden say that Posa was on Krasnikov's bike's. Bike's still missing...

I was talking to Aakko about his equipment after last season, and he said there just isn't better! He's been riding Veijo Tuoriniemi tuned (frames) Jawa's forever, and has found nothing to complain. Also he had a chance to compare them to other bikes, including several Russian "rockets". I believe it's was Lumpov's engine that he described as a disgrace, yet when they practised together he could hardly keep up with the guy. Our discussion ended with the words "Something should be done..!" I didn't have the heart (still dont )to say it might be good for him to pick up jogging...

These are on barrowed equipment. They've been training as well, but not with their own bikes.

The story is that the bikes of Antti Aakko and other western riders, + spare bikes of some Russian riders have gone missing on the train from Angarsk to Shadrinsk. They were promised to be at Shadrinsk later on, so somebody must know where they are... Maybe the riders should ask Rune Holta or Trick for some advice on what to do next..

The Finns are putting Joonas Kylmäkorpi and Kaj Laukkanen in to the Tarnow qualifier.

According to speedwaystar.net, this is now 100 %, and total number of rounds is 10.

All my best to Darija and co! A great place, seen and heard trough pictures the place. Only bad thing in all this is that I have no excuse to visit the place the coming year... But I hope there's gonna be he time, that Scott Nicholls wins a GP at Gorican, and (if not securing the title) will secure his place in the GP the next year ON MERIT! lmao * 90 in a slight stage of intoxication... Have a great saturday evening Sube!

I wonder if Subedei still has the energy to name a few riders without such merit's..

Thank you very much, mission accomplished.

When did this SS in question come out? Is it the 26th...

I have something for you, but eatmyshale@hotmail.com doesn't take e-mail. If anyone know's this fellow, please ask him to contact me, mate. No worries!! and the finger thing

Tommy Flyktman is riding on a finnish license this year, for Kuusankoski MK. I understand he's a part of the finnish national team as well. Conkers, our friend JB flew to play in Norway before we could close a date. I wonder if he's as fast in his moves on a bike

I would think you are pretty safe as long as the reserve policy stays (U21). It's been now adopted in Finland and the UK, and I believe the swedes have a similar system.

It's an official story here that the Daugavpils team is riding in the finnish league next year, at least that's what I've understood. Busy summer...

PirMM which is a local club here in Tampere, and since yesterday one that I'm a member of has applied to host an individual meeting on 19th of February. It's a sunday, and the racing would probably start around 18.00. Details are yet unknown, but the target is to have a meeting with plenty of racing, not necessarily top names! And yes! this an important date!! Ryanair operates between Stanstedt and Tampere, the "Pyynikki" stadium where the meeting will be held is in the center of the city about 15 minutes from the airport.

In seven games Jason Bonsignore scored 4+1, and was left without a contract. I take that he's gonna go home, so there goes that interview...

So friday is practise day at Bydgoszcz, and a work day for the trainers. This is something I did not know. I guess they have a similar day in Sweden? But not at UK, because most of them dont own their tracks, and because of the limitations to their abilities to use the track? A few question about the rules. Do you have points limit? Are reserves counted in it? A rider like Kasprzak who I'd imagine has a big avg. compared to some other U21 reserve, does it matter if he number 6 or 7 in his team? Or is the reserve with higher avg always number 6? (sorry if this has been covered earlier)

Finnish league will be run on 4 man teams, with #4 being a finnish U21 rider. That makes it "3+1". Every team is able to track two foreigners in one meeting. There will be no points limit, except a minimum for the three riders in the "main body" of the team. There will be an ice racing qualifier @ Kuusankoski 14-15th of January -06, and the individual speedway final 1st of July @ Seinäjoki as a one-off meeting. There might be some qualifiers, but that remains to be seen.

I've been under the impression that Polish speedway is always the first to get organised for the coming season? But the team building lists looked very quiet! Also something that has troubled me is the trainers in Polish and Swedish clubs, what's their role?

It certainly did for the speedway star this summer! Thats how I got to know this story. And also why I thought I had no obligation to explain. Pelicans are playing here in three weeks, might have to go to that one!

Apparently he couldn't get a deal to play ice hockey in the NHL this season, so he came to play for the Pelicans from Lahti. Scored 3+0 yesterday against Lukko from Rauma. I wonder if he's already been to the Lahti track at Pipo?

Is there one that isn't?

Does anyone have any info on the relations between FIM and UEM. Because I remember reading the UEM rulebook, and in many cases it stated that you should look to the FIM book for further detail. If UEM runs under FIM's control, then I'd think that sort's that out. I'm not 100% sure about these nominations, Hans for example. I cant put a finger on what has happened that justifys Puk and Zagar getting the nod over Hans? I hope he sue's the b¤#¤#d's!
