No problems. Just carrying out a public service. And for selfish reasons obviously!!!!!! Bloomin phone bill now will be horrible - Italy / Australia and lots more here!!!!!! But it was worth it.

Hang on - reading all this again - it is possible that they have both gone through. That way its 6 through Ulamek, Pedersen, Nemo, JB, Followed by Rory and Jonasson and Tai reserve. Text received from track - its as I have said above. Those 6 and Tai at reserve Sorry everyone. Beginning to wish I hadnt started this!!!! Have now amended my post with the results in - sorry to confuzzle everyone. And Andy - I use THIS SITE - it is very informative

Do you know - I wrote down Nieminen first time in the bad signal call. And then when it was repeated he said Monberg!!! I didnt pick up on that until after the call. So apologies for the fans of both riders. You may need to wait for the official sites to post the results on that one. Both could be possible as they were both on 9 after 4 Sorry everyone

I have text the track again but if that was the case then I can see no reason for the run off. It would be nice though.

The info from the track was it was a race off from 3 riders for 2 spots and reserve. Looking at the german site 6 riders are higlighted green from the 1st qualifier but it didnt say if Smolinski was reserve or not!!

1st.........Seb Ulamek 2nd........J B Monberg 3rd........Bjarne Pedersen 4th........K Nieminen Race off last two place between Rory / Tai and Johansson with the result as follows: 5th......T H Johansson 6th......Rory Schlein Reserve......... Tai Woffinden Obviously Im over the moon about Rory but would have been happier if Tai had been in there too. And I am really very grateful to Ian Hewlett from SWERVE RACEWEAR for phoning through from Italy. EDIT - PLACINGS AMENDED BECAUSE IM A PILLOCK!!!!!!!

Very quickly - Rory 6 from 2 and Tai 4 from 2 I am just typing the rest up, but need to confirm names as I have them on a post it note and cant read them!!! Back in 5 minutes

Just sent a text to Italy to see if we can at least get something. He may not reply as he .......... no ..... not racing!!! He's in the pits though!!

That is the only link we have - but nothing is coming through yet

Well for you DB, you can read it any way you want!!!

Add this website to your favourites. It is excellent

much appreciated from the Midlands too.

Sorry to stop you guys in mid flow but I have just had a thought! (I know - dangerous) With so much fighting and bitching on the forum at the moment will the meet up at the Prince of Wales end up being a rumble?! Or could it be a great place to start re-building things and get people talking face to face and having more respect for each other once more. A little bit of the first is always fun but I hope the 2nd is the way forward.

He was there by right! Why dont we just decide the top 6 riders and put them through now. Anything can happen and it is their right to be there and compete. Ipswich dont have a chance to win the league (sorry guys if this is news to you!!) so should we right them off now and thell them to stop racing becuase their is no point!! And by the same token lets knock out the bottom 12 off the GP list and only compete with only those with a chance of winning!!

Cheeky git - I could give you a run for your money!!!!!

agreed.

Well, we could be paid in alcohol. Had a phone call last night from one of the Cradley gang who have now booked into the hotel through Late Rooms.com Its going to be a real party!!!

Thanks.

Is that confirmed or are u guessing? Not saying I dont believe you - but the written word doesnt come across with an emphasis on the voice. Thanks

And Im following Dackarna and if it is the break it appears to be a very long one. Im therefore getting worried as Rory is in the heat yet to be posted - its horrid just waiting!

and dont forget tha is for 2 DOUBLE beds. So not too bad a price really.

nothing unusual there then

or to wrap your legs around!!! Still a chance we could do the same again this year Bird - what with yer boy racing!!!
