I guess with these travel firms it is easy for people who can't be bothered to plan such a trip for themselves Exactly, and for those who don't have the confidence to be independant in a foreign country. I know last years Bydgoszcz trip with either Rico Tours or Chivsy Travel was done at a fraction of the cost of TPT. I also know that one of the TPT team is an Ipswich fan and makes himself very unpopular on the Ippo forum which doesn't inspire confidence in the company.

Think i met him in Vojens and then i managed to find a pub in Hamburg the TPT boys and girls could watch the SWC from Coventry.Had a look in on the Ippo forum once or twice and it seems fairly easy to make yourself unpopular on there.

Well don't know what you did to deserve that Sub.But i must admit to not being a fan of club forums.I have looked in occasionally on a couple and they seem to have a rule that you must not criticise the club/management/riders or all hell will break loose

Defend away Rob, I too have had good chats with him over the years. He just seems to have a blind spot about Scott Nicholls. To which he is entitled, I hasten to add. I just don't agree with him ;D

I wouldn't call myself a frequent visitor to the BullShitForum, and I discovered today one of the reasons why! My nomination this week goes to the flapperjack who today created not one, but two threads on the subject of Tony Millard, and both in the same section, namely tigerhart. The basis of my nomination is threefold; 1/ 'Cos it's not like this hasn't been talked about a thousand times before is it? 2/ Like Sky will be trawling internet forums to decide who they do and don't employ, based on the opinion of about 12 people. 3/ For referring to Millard as "appallingly vocabularyly challenged", and continuing the post in a similarly poorly spelled fashion; if you're going to slag off media types in print, at least learn how to spell! The only saving grace is that, having gone back to check who the perpetrator was, I note that in a rare display of common sense, both threads have now been moved, or possibly removed, as I could only locate one of them.

KevH was on their recent SWC tour through Denmark,Germany and Poland.Maybe he has some thoughts on the company.I guess with these travel firms it is easy for people who can't be bothered to plan such a trip for themselves Indeed I was maccattack, and there is no way that an individual could do the trip we did, independantly, for the same or less cost. We are doing the Gelsenkirchen GP by our own means and indeed are doing it a lot cheaper than TP. TP offer a service which can choose to use or not - it's not compulsory!! One thing I should say though, is that the quoted costs of TP v Individual on the Ostrow excursion should reflect whether they are inclusive of admission to the meeting!! Travel Plus' are! Other than that there's not a lot more I can be arsed to say, other than some people are biased to the extent that they ignore people who use the TP service, hopefully that puts it into context.

On your first point, yes you did, on you second, yes you did and thanks again and on your third point, you should try the Oxford forum!!!!

That's the funny thing about this place - it makes you say "indeed" a lot more than you normally would.
