What do Pro trackies ride on the street?

I was just going to disagree, and then I remembered that I rode over to Hillingdon the other day, and was so knackered by the time I got there that I couldn't really be bothered with the track. So yes, I see your point. Doesn't mean I have to like it though...

i should clarify. i wasn't implying that track riders don't ride on the roads. but i reckon they'd prolly try to limit it to training rides, not as general transport, although i imagine some of them may ride to the track as a kind of pre warm-up.

the reason i say this is because recovery is fucking precious to elite athletes of any sort.

but then i don't know any pro track riders and i'm just guessing based on my experience of elite runners.
