Re: Sidi v Shimano Shoe Sizing
If you come to the track tonight you could probably try on a few people's sidi's. I'll pack my 44's in if you want to try them. Something like Sidi's I would really recommend trying and buying locally though. I know there is a massive price difference but it's good peace of mind.

Here is my report. Justin and I rolled out there together in his flash Skoda wagon. I knew it was going to be a great weekend when I saw that car there waiting for me, because I like Skodas and I like wagons. I also like Justin so this was a bonus.

You could always do Coluzzi at 6:15, their 'slow' group leaves then. You'll be fine for pace, and the smaller group obeys the road rules.

I was thinking gear limits might make for more fun racing - like 80" or 85" or 90" or something. So winning races will rely more on tactics. But I'll leave that decision to the higher powers... We already have an 81" omnium so it would be my (unbiased) opinion to let it ride. Fo...
