We decided that they will be on the same day to allow our friendly mechanics to help set up bikes for all rather than have two separate days...

There might have to be a bit of sharing going on as we dont have all that many 'loan bikes' especially in larger sizes.

Big red is the only bike over 56cm, so there will be a lot of red loving going on.
big bird is there, and it's big too, but i think it may need a rear wheel. and DO NOT take bits off the junior bikes!!! we just got them organized (and labeled, so if you do take them apart put them back the way they started. please )
Looks like at least 3 or more tall people will be sharing 1 bike!
As long as my knees don't hit the handle barsor riding small-ish-er bikes.
plus you'r supposed to ride a track bike running on the small side.

A late change of plans was annouced at the weekly cabinet meeting last night. The Minister bluntly expressed her desire to start off on holidays a day earlier than previously planned. My apologies, I will have to withdraw.

The weather isn't looking that brilliant but if the track is too wet i will run a roller session downstairs, so come along anyway.
Also if possible could everyone try and arrive on time, as it always talks longer than expected to set the bikes up and we only have limited track time available.
cheers,
alex.

Yes Andrew... The plan is rollers in the under croft.
I'm out (bicycle/scooter is my only means of transport and it's raining). No rollers for me.1. Jonboy (loan bike 56 cm pls - but will be a no show if rain as also allergic to wet track and rollers)

I'm thinking about introducing a rule that if you dont ride the rollers when it rains you arent allowed to ride on the track in the dry. This should stop all this wimpiness

Too much rain. I too don't own a car. That's my excuse.
Just read Colin's posting. I'm back in for Sat 9 March, 1-3pm.

No excuses of that sort for me.
I'm a wimp.
In fact, I don't even run on wet running tracks or treadmills either.
Marc - are you sure there is a "come try the track" session on on Sat 9 March, 1-3pm?
I believe Colins post was meant to be put on Forum on last Friday.

Hi All,
I'd like to gauge the interest in holding this on the Saturday the 4th May, weather permitting. Same time 1-3pm and as before
If you have a track bike, bring that. Otherwise you will need:
• Pedals and shoes (road ones are fine);
• Cycling kit including helmet
• A current CA licence (Gold, Silver is fine)
• Water and sun protection
Colin
Could one of the forum gods please update the topic heading, thanks

Hi All,
looks like it's going to be a nice day to ride the track, the rains going to stay away.
Can I ask that everyone get there a bit early, 12:30-45, so we can get the most of the 2 hrs as we're off at 3 on the dot.
thanks
