From VCL website:
"...People always think cyclists are no fun for being the first to leave a party. For the last few years VCL have been giving the perfect excuse - their New Years Day madison Cyclo Cross. Teams of two take it in turns racing round the velodrome’s cyclo cross course, relaying each other every lap. The event is run as a Go Race, so anyone can race - no need for racing licenses. Its a fun event, and a perfect introduction to Cyclo Cross. If you don’t have a partner don’t worry, just turn up on the day and find someone to race with.
A jumble sale will run from 10am. As a one off Herne Hill Velodrome will be selling off a container full of their equipment. There will be steel track frames, handlebars, track cranksets, pedals and tonnes more. All proceeds will go towards new hire bikes to be used next season, so grab yourself some bargains!I
Racing starts after lunch, so you can still have a lie in.

Under 14/16 1.00pm entry fee £2.00

I'm out from racing, but will come down for the jumble sale and might try to catch the begining of the main race.
