I won't risk that outlay with no roof. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikebv Posted June 6 Report Share Posted June 6 The Danish Martin Smolinski... Too many are ignoring the inside... Kurtz almost caught Fricke by using it once last night in that last heat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bagpuss Posted June 6 Report Share Posted June 6 (edited) Racing much better in that block once the track slickened off, think that late afternoon shower made it too grippy early doors. Edited June 6 by Bagpuss Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Clemens Posted June 6 Report Share Posted June 6 It's all a bit of a damp squib at the moment. Nothing to get excited about as yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawk127 Posted June 6 Report Share Posted June 6 Not sure you can get too excited by tonight’s racing. It is OK but certainly not worth the ticket prices being asked for tonight’s meetings. Sadly not many if any can compete with a Polish round and the enthusiasm of the Polish crowd. Another point, are the Polish riders finding the UK track difficult?

It's a six hour drive and then the cost of a hotel. Went to Prague instead for one night and spent less than it would cost to go to Manchester plus had a lovely city to spend time in at cheap prices. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And even then you an not compare the atmosphere to Poland over here. They are biblical. We can only dream of that.

Mr. Clemens Posted June 6 Report Share Posted June 6 Might be a good idea to give Glasgow a GP. I think the people there would bend over backwards to put on a memorable show 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I can spend a weekend in Spain cheaper than I can spend a weekend in London. UK is an expensive place to live. But we're also paid much better than most in Europe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To many programme savers in wulfspurt jackets Agree and I am sure if Bewley had been riding the meeting would be at another level. Yes a rider of his calibre can make all the difference and hopefully in 2027 he will be at Belle Vue showing them how it is done. Onwards and upwards and fingers crossed Dan can get back in the saddle soon. He is a future world champion and his time will come. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
