To be able to select seats you need to have registered with the site. This can be done with English field descriptions by clicking on 'Rejestracja', assuming you have already clicked the English language button. Once you've done that it will allow you to select seats in those sections with seats available. Say you want seats in Sektor D - click on Zamow Bilety under Sektor D, this will then show you the available seats in this section. You click on the seats that you wish to have, then once done scroll up to the top and select Wyslij zamowienie. This should then result in you seeing something like Zamówienie nr XX zostało przyjęte. Proszę wpłacić w przeciągu 3 dni odpowiednią kwotę na konto: ZKŻ SSA, ul. Wrocławska 69, 65-218 Zielona Góra, Poland IBAN: PL 46 1140 1850 0000 5012 7600 1005 SWIFT: BREXPLPW The XX will be your reservation number and the message says basically you have 3 days to get the money to their account or the reservation will be cancelled. I would put Zamówienie nr XX (substituting XX for your order number) as the reference on your IBAN payment. Mateusz is popping round later so he will clarify any errors in the above instructions. Unfortunately the whole English translation doesn't appear to be working at present - hope it's resolved soon. Sektor E is unreserved. Rico

I've been away in Scotland for the last week or so, so just been catching up on this today. I've updated the list to show who I have received payment for,not to name and shame, just to make sure people can see that I've received money when it's been sent, I know at least 1 of you has been having trouble with e-mail. If you've sent a cheque and I've not acknowledged it or listed you as being paid on page 1 please contact me by e-mail (peter.leckie(@ sign)gmail.com). I will try and keep this as up to date as I can. Cheers Rico

The bags will not be a problem Toutmaster - some are staying over in Zielona Gora and some in Poznan, so they'll all be in the same situation as you. Cheers Rico

PM sent to you Toutmaster. Rico

E-mail issued to the points of contact I have re this trip - if you haven't received an e-mail from me then let me know asap. Thanks Rico

Tickets will be on sale mid-August available via internet according to my man in ZG. (Cheers Tommy). Rico

Just a quick message to everyone re the trip, I will be sending out an e-mail by Monday of next week with full details of the trip. Things have been a tad hectic of late with me racing up and down the country but I will be at home this weekend and will be able to give you all confirmation of the trip details. Thanks for your patience. Rico

http://www.speedwayworld.tv/en/news/a9275?...02c15596c40e024 Peter Ljung wildcard Jonas Davidsson & Thomas H Jonasson are the track reserves. Rico

Queen Dougs removed from the list due to no contact. Rico ps I'm still awaiting info from Poland but should be writing to everyone fairly soon with full details of the trip.

No sold out signs there as far as my eyes can see http://www.speedwayworld.tv/en/venuedetails/a4388 Rico

Still to hear back from 3 groups on the original list of interested parties - I will need to put a deadline of 15th July 2008 on your interest, otherwise I cannot guarantee you a place on the trip. Further PMs have been sent to those groups. Thanks to those that have replied and I hope to be in touch by e-mail as soon as possible after 15th July. Cheers Rico

Hi Ped, AFAIK only our group is likely staying the night in Zielona Gora, with possibly AlGerrie too. Discuss over a pint on Saturday ? Rico

I've managed to get our group of 4 booked into the Ruben hotel for the Sunday night. The hotel wanted 30% of the room rate up front but I've managed to persuade them that we are trustworthy Not particularly cheap as it comes in at about £100 per room on current exchange rates, but it looks very nice as you would expect from a brand new hotel. Rico ps Please note there are still a few people who have not been in touch re the coach trip - If you are interested in going it's probably in your interest to speak up now.

Team changes please Nicki Pedersen (Captain) $60,000 Rune Holta $30,000 Scott Nicholls $35,000 Tomasz Gollob $45,000 (for Leigh Adams $50,000) Neils Kristian Iversen $25,000 which should total $195,000. Rico

I was going to add something along those lines, but I tried not to be cynical. AJ didn't look like he was sharing his pot last season, the way he celebrated. Rico

They might be able to afford the expense out of their guaranteed $15,000 prize for the race. Prize money is split 1st $120,000, 2nd $40,000, 3rd $25,000 4th $15,000. Rico

Hmmmm - I've tested by sending an e-mail to myself via the link and haven't received anything and also had HenryW try it without success. My e-mail address is peter (dot) leckie (@ sign) gmail (dot) com - if anyone has already attempted to send me an e-mail via the forum you will need to resend it directly please. I will edit the list on the first post to show who I have received initial replies from. If you have replied and it's not been acknowledged there then I haven't received it. I will chase people individially after a week or so if I've not heard from any of the groups. Rico

Ok, time is ticking on with this trip and I'm going to start firming up the arrangements. Can I ask that all of the people who are the lead names for your party (e.g.Bruno + 2, Bruno) contact me by e-mail. Once I have that information for all the interested parties it will be easier for me to communicate with you individually if required and also ensure that no-one misses any important updates. I will post on the thread if I have sent anything out to the group. In your e-mail please state your forum name and the confirmed number in their party. Also, I know some people have indicated a preference to being dropped off in Poznan on the return journey. If you don't tell me of a preference I will assume you are going back to Bydgoszcz. It's important for numbers on each bus that you indicate this as one bus will go straight back to Bydgoszcz, while the other will be stopping briefly in Poznan. I can be e-mailed via my profile on here edit : no I can't - see next post. Prompt replies are much appreciated. Cheers Rico

Indeed mikec - the match at Gniezno was top drawer. Scorching hot day, track gets a tad dusty, so they do some proper watering as required. I went along expecting a big home win, but Rovne had strengthened up and they were very competitive indeed and possibly unfortunate not to win on the day. Highlight of the meeting was heat 14, which is undoubtedly the best 4 laps of speedway I've seen for a while as Roman Ivanov tried to hold back the home pair while Matej Kus was in front. You could have literally thrown a blanket over all 4 for the majority of the 4 laps and the resulting 1-5 set us up with a last heat decider. Most peculiar thing of the day was when the Rovne pair (with Kus on a double points ride) made the gate on an 8-1, the home fans almost to a man applauded, and then gave the visitors a hearty round of applause at the end of the race. Some whistles were directed at the home heat leader in the race, while Simon Jensen gave the crowd a big wave after finishing stone last. Very odd. Rico ps Delighted to see your train tale on here PedroPete - made me chuckle that you hadn't got home till after we did on Sunday morning.

Here you go fourteentee - get practicing http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=X2f_EETvndg&...feature=related http://www.wikihow.com/Count-to-Ten-in-Polish Rico

Sounds good Beesboybert. I'll go for Nicki Pedersen (Captain) $60,000 Rune Holta $30,000 Scott Nicholls $35,000 Leigh Adams $50,000 Neils-Kristian Iversen $25,000 which should total $200,000. Rico

Fingersfin, see the posts up above for Bydgoszcz's next fixtures against Grudziadz and Poznan. Both are matches that Polonia should win. Just to remind Mateusz of what the Torun fans sung to me at the Under 21 final in Ostrow last year "Derby with Grudziadz, you've got you're derby with Grudziadz". While it may hurt, you've got to admit it's funny MK. I hope you enjoy the matches and Polonia bank the match points. Rico

I'll make sure you hook up with Lawrence and the other Bydgoszcz fans coming down to the GP, no worries. Rico

That'll be a no then Rico
