Nice. Trackies all have a similar look about them don't they. Fit, aggressive, etc :)

Good night tonight... I was shattered from work, and only thought I'd do a few races, But ended up doing most of them and having really good fun.

Legs are shot now.

i am happy, had a nice time too. thanks for the glasses hoopster

That track looks like it could be pretty awesome with a bit of love, Winston.
Outdoor 250m tracks with steep banking allways look a little odd when you're so used to HH.
It looks pretty simmilar to the one in Bournemouth that is nearing completion.

It's weird seeing a 250m track in an outdoor environment, makes it feel very small.....think I might have my work cut out.... those juniors looked pretty fast, not sure of that's the German team or German champ colours that one of them is wearing....

What is the programme for this evening, does anyone know?

Well 'the apprentice' is on at 9 and then 'you're fired' is on at 10

20k

No, it's a 250k investment this year. He's looking for a partner rather than an apprentice.

Rain?

What is the programme for this evening, does anyone know?

At a wild guess, I'd say a 15 lap warm up race, points, devil, handicap sprint and big long scratch race at the end.

Or something that is as close to that as "Fuch" is to swearing.

Rain?

Doesn't look too bad, maybe a bit spitty this afternoon. Not as windy as it's been the last few days either.

Its frickin raining in Soho. Ive just pumped myself full of drugs too!!! (beetroot juice)

Think HH will be dry enough. Enjoy yourselves, don't forget your lights.

Raining pretty seriously in Bethnal Green now. Any reports from South?

Getting wetter here too :(

Might have to do a few Regents Park laps instead.

pretty nasty in SE1...

Shagging it down in EC3. Ballcocks. Have to stay here and work now....

Not raining in SE3 (Blackheath) apparently, but looks "very dark" according to Mrs PhoenixTrack.

raining here in battersea

Bit cheeky (some might even say creative?), but I rang the pub in Dulwich just now and it "isn't raining but it's looking dark and blustery". They recommended I sit inside ;-)

We need a webcam at the track.

it has stopped raining here. not that i was going anyway...rollers!

it was drizzling about 15mins ago in Herne Hill... but it's pretty much dried up now.
Skies are still looking pretty grey though...

I'm gonna give it a miss tonight... been pretty shattered this week.

It's raining steadily in Beckenham and the rain followed me home.
