  • I am up for it already and thinking of the podium!
    The change in chkpt format should be interesting.
    Gonna be wearing my Black Armband and I encourage everyone present to do so.
    RIP Josh.

  • i'm in

  • I'm in, does anyone know the checkpoints?

  • Hi I've been riding fixed for a while now but am new to these group rides/events. Can someone please briefly explain what these 2 events are and the location and time.

    Thanks!

  • Chirag,

    AlleyCat is a checkpoint race (usually 6/7 checkpoints) around town. Hit them all up and then get to the finish before anyone else.

    Street Keirin is like track cycling but round a roundabout!.../quiet residential street.

    Come down, take part, spectate, say hello...

  • Bundo, thanks for the details.

    Time and place? Any other rules?

  • Full City cycles, Leather Lane about 7pm i think

    No rules just don't stop!..

  • Cool. I'll probably come along. Can anybody participate? Are the checkpoints pre-released?

  • Anyone can participate the entrance fee is usually £5.
    Worth doing with a mate as the regulars take a while to become friendly.
    For the checkpoints have a look at the Full City Cycles website

  • No sign of checkpoints on website...

  • Results?

  • OK, this is the breakdown and it's not pretty because of a chkpt malfunction at Dorset sq en route Plender nw1. The first four to reach Cloudesely never actually went to Plender and so were disq;

    Jordan
    Will
    Sam
    Sam{f}

    Frank came into Cloudesley fifth, did all chkpoints but was disq on a technicality, basically failing to do the stupid lap of Dorset and so therefore lost the win on that,

    Rob Thomas came into Clouds sixth, did all the chkpts and the lap and so by default was declared the winner.

    Damien, Yarik, Jamie came into Clouds but have to ascertain whether they did completed the the race in full so they can podium.

    The race kicked of post nine which was a bit late in my view.
    I will suggest that the next one should have amanifestfor the chkpts, this will
    alleviate any confusion.

  • To sum up, the night was still good fun meeting up with good mates; Josh in mind.
    Cock up's happen and are a part of life and on the night Rob was a deserved winner and a good racer.

    He also came second in the lcef Halloween race, winning a nice track frame.
