Surely Avesta must be considered to be a proper track!? D'oh ! And I was there as well He got "Dryml'd" in that one though. Rico :roll: Dryml'd = outrageous manouvre swinging from inside to out on exit to a corner resulting in your opponent having to shut off.

Tomasz Gollob will have a change of luck and be victorious. He has looked in good form in the GPs this year and on the first proper track (Chorzow is still new imho) will make up for last year when beaten by a tyres width by Sullivan. Go Tomek ! Rico :roll:

Given that the deeds to my house state that I am not allowed a dish should I consider moving home just to subscribe to Sky ? A somewhat simplistic outlook you have taken on this one Mr Flappy Rico :roll:

Do you think us moderators are morons Rico? Careful how you answer that! I reckon you should just send us full details with photos so that we can blackm......errr I mean make an unbiased judgement :twisted: Ok - point taken :roll: maybe it's time you created an over 18 section ;-) although the 'diaries' will appear on yahoogroups still there may be another vehicle for them soon. I almost feel like I've just had my bum smacked - and ooh it felt nice. Rico :twisted:

They are not so bad as they make out are they Joanne :?: Well maybe Rico isn't Or were they just behaving in front of you :?: There was a definite picking up of the pace once Joanne left. And once Doc left there were certainly some <snip-worthy> incidents. I'll see if I can persuade Tomek to post his piece on here so the Forum members who don't view Yahoo-groups can read his excellent prose. Nice to meet up with Joanne and Doc. Midnight-Lady - do you think the Moderators on here will be happy for the yahoo-groups version to be posted on here ? Rico :roll:

Funnily enough Rico I heard a couple oflasses said the same thing at Cardiff :clown You have a fantastic time too.....I wont say behave yourself ;-) Look forward to hearing ALL about it when you get back :? Too snipping right And the lasses concerned were of course involved with mało Tomek ;-) Rico :roll:

Would you like a spoon to help with your stirring Lioness I am sure Joanne and the others when they return will be wondering what all the fuss was about Tomek and myself :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: Rico (Getting up at 5.30 am ) but it means we are at the airport nice and early for a loosener or two

Many many thanks Hanne - very kind of you to gather that information for us. I think I am going to take my chances and buy tickets on Saturday - there didn't seem many good areas to choose from on the e-billeter site. We will head up to Parken on Saturday once we have recovered sufficiently from a Friday evening in Copenhagen. Thanks again Rico :roll:

REPROBATES ! We just like to have fun. Don't go listening to Midnight Lady, Lioness. Rico :roll:

This time I think I'll check the currency after I tried to spend some spare Kroner in Sweden, which unfortunately was all of the Danish variety Can any of our Danish chums confirm that tickets will be on sale at the stadium on Friday and Saturday, or is there somewhere more central to town to purchase them. Also what time are the tickets on sale - thanks in advance. Rico :roll:

Rico I don't know you but I "lurk" on the Yahoo board and I do very much enjoy reading Tomek's accounts of your partaking "in a nice cup of tea and a chat" on your GP weekends BUT .... what you do is actually planned ? ;-) :?: Sir Lunchalot We need to find out where's hot and where's not . Believe it or not Tomek is one for having a (and he likes to put on a Scottish accent and roll his rrrrrrrrr's at this point) Ready Reckoner for currency conversion. Denmark he seems happy with just dividing by 10 though and thinks he can cope with it. This year, other than Copenhagen, we have been to the tracks / cities that we are planning to go to before so the 'been there, know what to do' hats are on. Maybe that's why I am suggesting we are a little unprepared for our adventure in Copenhagen. I'm sure there will be some tales to be told on yahoo-groups after the weekend and hopefully some (snips) Rico :roll: :-o

That looks like 3 of us at least (+partners in crime where appropriate). Shalewhale I trust this has been resolved in good time for you Anyone else fancies showing their face, don't be shy now ! I just need to check that my t-shirt with "73" on it isn't lying at the bottom of the washing basket :roll: Hopefully Joanne and Doc will know each other by the end of their flight over. Safe journeys to all. Rico

Doc, It's definitely the Ibis Copenhagen Crown Hotel - check www.copenhagen.the-hotels.com/ibis-copenhagen-crown-hotel.htm or www.hotel-booker.com/dk/copenhagen/crown-hotel-copenhagen.html If you put Ibis Copenhagen Crown Hotel into a search engine it finds it no problem. Don't be scared of us Scots - its the bloke from Northern Ireland that will be with me that you need to worry about Rico :roll:

I'm on the 7.15 am flight from Stansted. Just look out for the mad Scottish woman Looks like our Forum get together is getting bigger And you may wish to look out for the mad Scottish bloke ! Anyone that is going, would it be unreasonable to suggest meeting in the bar of the Ibis Copenhagen Crown Hotel, say around 7pm on the Friday evening. All I can say about recognising me is that allegedly I look facially like John Postlethwaite of BSI (I don't necessarily subscribe to that theory) - I will wear a t-shirt with a big "73" on the front. Given that I don't really know anywhere in Copenhagen I am at a loss to suggest anywhere else. If anyone else can think of anything better then feel free to shout. Rico

Doc, Our flight is 0945 on Friday morning from Heathrow to Copenhagen - flight is operated by SAS. Returning Sunday around 1500 hours. We still haven't sorted our stadium tickets out yet though - no panic I'd imagine ! Sounds like an official forum meet may be in order ! Rico

No Joanne - we gave up on Stanstead after some long long journeys there and back last year - we are flying from Heathrow to Copenhagen with SAS. Only a 40 minute coach run to Heathrow from where we are. Rico

Joanne, At the moment we are going into this one a little blind. I have done a bit of reading on virtualtourist.com but haven't prepared for the trip as thoroughly as I would normally. Sometimes a little adventure doesn't go amiss. We are staying at Ibis Copenhagen Crown Hotel, which appears to be quite central, travelling out Friday morning, returning Sunday afternoon. Give me a shout if you fancy a couple of pre-meeting drinks with some scary (we aren't really) company. Always nice to put a face to a name. Regardless, have a great time. Rico

Joanne, Try http://www.nbi.dk/TOOLS/Cph-map3.jpg - Parken appears to the north of the town. For other info I always check out www.virtualtourist.com - you get info from travellers on all aspects of the town as well as the locals opinion of their own town. One other tip though. Be careful if you bump into two blokes called Tomek and Rico, they're trouble If you read yahoo groups speedway list you'll know what I mean :evil: Rico

When did we meet Mr Pirate ? Rico :?:

On an Australian licence. Don't know if that's been held against him (or the fact he couldn't cut it in the GPs in the past). Rico Think Richie meant Zagar not Ferjan!! Ferjan has been the form rider in Slovenia lately, apologies for any confusion. Too many Matej's spoil the broth ????? Rico

I have read on another forum that Zagar is a wildcard for Slovenia - can't recall who the other one is, but it isn't Ferjan. Rico

Take it you will be a Coventry fan then ? The whole studio agreed that the decision with Sullivan was correct. Lee had baulked Ryan to the back early in the race imho. I felt sorry for Lee as he was going well in the race and to have to come straight back out in the next race was tough. As for Hancock, the first few camera angles were inconclusive, however the last one they showed proved somewhat damning and confirmed the right decision was made. Rico

Bardzo dobrze ! Mowiem polskiego bardzo nie dobrze - but I try ! Kate - you keep going. I have been taking Polish lessons and it's good to encourage others to learn your wonderful language. Mam na imie Piotr - jestem szkotem I am off to Stockholm to cheer on Tomek and Pepe tomorrow - I have been to Poland many times for zuzel - never Zielona Gora though. Gollob jest moj bohater ! Czescz ! Sto lat etc Rico

I heard back from SVEMO today. Buses are running from the Olympic Stadium in Stockholm from 1400 hours - last bus departs at 1630 (which apparently will get you to the stadium just at start time). I don't know how frequent the buses are going to be, but thats the first and last times. The bus costs 100 sek - around £7. The announcement on the sgp website did say you needed to let SVEMO know you were going to use the bus service so I'd still advise you to get in touch with them. If you can't get through on the phone then use the e-mail address I gave. Good luck - we set off tomorrow morning, so you won't hear any more from me on the subject after tonight. Rico
