such a fun day =) big thank you to laner, nltcbmbc, coaches and volunteers. Also was awesome to have good women's field!
hope the guys in the crash heal up quick

Such a great turn out and great to see so many faces this afternoon!

Me and @OldSkoolRacer was running late due afternoon tea/dim sum, but we were expecting to see only 20 odd people race and a lot of people heckling, but how wrong was we? Great to see to many racers on the track, definitely some serious (and of course fun) business compared to 3 years ago!

Congrats on all the riders who won and @IR who bloody bossed it on the track stand comp! Kudos!

Sorry I didn't race or got to have a chance to say hello to everyone this year, but great to see so many familiar/new faces on the track!

Also here are some shots of todays event if people want to use them, feel free to use them at your desire:

Amazing turn out! thanks everyone for coming down to race or heckle.
special thanks to @Colin_the_Bald, @mands, @hairnetnic, @Doctor_Cake, @Cazakstan, @Scoot and @eyebrows for helping out on the day.

Big up all #nltcbmbc for sorting all the prizes and actually making sure this ran despite a few last minute organisational hitches.

Such an awesome day. Makes such a difference racing rather than spectating! I'm definitely going to head to the track more often. Thank you nltcbmbc, laner and all who volunteered!

Well done to the NLBMCWTFARETHERESTOFTHELETTERS for organising a great race meet. Nice to see @laner @HoKe @Scoot @dimi3 @tommmmmmm and lots more. Sorry I couldn't stay and help, due to crappy life stuff :(

You know it's a good track meet when you can hear it from your house :)

big rep to @laner #nltcbmbc and everyone who made this happen - a lot of hard work and organising prizes and logistics and it really paid off. lovely day out with a massive turnout, so nice to see & race in a big women's field this year!

also @harpoonist heal the f up dude, one of your mates has got your prize!

What an amazing afternoon, such friendly vibes off the track and great racing on it! Thanks and well done to you guys that put in the effort to make it happen and to those I spoke to, it was really nice to meet you all!

I've never really been interested in any competitive cycling, but yesterday made me consider induction and giving track a go for the first time.

What a great vibe! Maybe i'll be on track next year, who knows.

Big up all the organisers and hecklers. And to a lesser extent the winners, too. ;)

I ha a great time watching the racing. Thanks @laner @sumo @roboto @ObiWomKenobi @Scoot @tommmmmmm etc etc

I took 70 odd photos, up here:

Totally stole one for cover photo ;)

Sorry I could not attend and heckle.

Events like this are evidence of why LFGSS is so awesome. The way in which people step up and do shit for the benefit of everyone else. Chapeaux to all involved.

Great to see everyone, excellent afternoon, even the Commisaire enjoyed himself! A special thank you from Mrs B to the Ladies of the Lap Board for making her feel so welcome, but mainly for the cake.

Really great day of racing and general radness! Very well organised event, just a shame it had to be cut short :) female representation top notch too! Thanks to dudes at Nort London Thunder Cats, LFGSS and all prize sponsors, bloody happy to walk away with a set of wheels!

@Scoot has done a nice write up of the day on our website:
