Millenium bound traffic situation..
SCB replied to Mark Evans's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
Ok, just come back form Coventry to Newport. The M5 has road works about 500 yards after the M50 turn off. The M50/A449 is down to one lane in places but today it was still moving at a steady speed and part of it was for cutting down the tree's so they might have gone by Friday. -

Well point out to him that there are road works further down. The last time I went over the bridge was on the way to Stoneleigh as the M50 was closed and there were roadworks at the end of the M5 then. So as long as people follow the signs for South Wales (they really are unmissable - says the person who missed them once ) and turn off the M5 just as you pass the Strentham (something like that) Services people should be ok traffic wise until they actually get to the end and reach Newport but then it's only a matter of getting onto the Coldra(roundabout) and back off again with them dodgy lights but they cause trouble on the M4 as well. -
It's like the American flattrack(?). Thats run on huge tracks like that only with a layer of shale.

I have come up to Coventry tonight from Newport and there were no road works (either way) on the A449(all), M50(it did go to one lane on the way up) or M5(junction 10ish to 3ish). I think I did see signs that mentioned major road works on the M6. -
You obviously know me well

But I'm not running a business, an alleged professional one at that. If I were runing BSI I'd make sure I employed someone who could write proper English and then someone else to check it.

There are foot paths and it can be done. There are lots of road works about now though form the end of corporation road and on spitty road that might make it a bit difficult, it's hard enough getting a car down there so walking would be near impossible!
-
Simon Stead is riding again, hopefully he'll get a hcnace if BSI actually take a look and realise he is riding again. You think the BSI website would use good English and get there facts right.
-
Do you know the address for it? Either way, if it in Newport it's a few miles from the station as it's on the edge of Newport and the station is in the centre.

The M50/A449 almost never has any traffic, only occasionally is there traffic on the A449 bit as you get into Monmouth because of the one set of traffic lights. I know that on friday there was no road works on the M5 that I used (Cov to Newport). I go that way when I go to and from Coventry every week. It ends on the Newport Speedway junction of the M4 (24?). Don't be supprised if you get stuck in the Brynglas Tunnels (M4 junction 25a/26 I think) on Saturday night as last night it was down to 1 lane and they tend to drag these things on for a while, I know it was down to 1 lane a few year back on GP, so unless you have to avoid the M4, anyone staying in Newport can get back to Newport via an alternative route(or 2) if you wish. -
Not something I'd like to try, £50+

Nice one Mads!!

s's and v's. Little difference Make that "Love the site". But you knew that
-
A quick search on the net suggesst it's almost certainly not James Arthur but John Alfred looks popular. Jackson Alpine looks even less likely. BTW, lose the site, it's something different and I spent quite a while reading through it.
-
I'd say it's a good 15 to 20 minute walk(at brisk speed) and unless you know the way there a VERY good chance of getting lost, I would not advise it. You could jump in a taxi outside the station and that would cost about £5-8. I know a few other forumers are planning on catching a train and wanted to know how far the stadium is form the track, prehaps all forumers who want to get from the station to the track together could get together and get a taxi or two between them?! I would offer a lift but I'll be coming for the other end of Newport as I'll probably be picking up another forumer.

you mean this? Great stuff, wish he would give Pedersen some of the same, might just calm him down.

GO WATO

Cardiff-whose stopping where?

My house. HaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHa -
Good to see a new face on top of the rostrum and also pleasing to see Jarek Hampel have another brilliant GP, it's surely only a matter of time now before he gets to the top step. This years title race looks like it could be fun with a few rider up there now and a few other riders who you can never count out.

SCB replied to sirmatty's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
You can now get Sky Sports Xtra on NTL cable if you have the Sky Sports package. -
JT, Pinny has bene saying for the last 18 months that Tim shoudl be keeping tab in Jurica and he's right. He is already good. when someone gets him into the PL on 9 in a couple of seaosn time they should have an instand success looking at some of his results. That said, he might go straight into the EL.
-
Wato should get the place, after all, he was in Svabs round, Dryml was not.
-
Newport are my team, also cheer for them first but I'll cheer even a rider I don't like if they have impressed me, I won't cheer for the opposition ebfore a race UNLESS they're Welsh!! Tom Brown and Phil Morris get as much support from me as Newport riders do, EVERY time.
-
Walk around Cardiff, theres plenty of places, listing them all would take for ever, TBH I've only ever been in McDonald and KFC, I did go in Burger King once
