Discuss..

No.

I won't be there, that's disastrous for the bar

Was good fun last time... only way it would have been better was a better sound system and a big band or at least djs playing that kinda music as opposed to whatever it was.

This has been on the Rollapaluza "coming soon" page for some time....as last time, we are associated with this, so a perfect opportunity for you guys to spin under pressure on the Rollapaluza rig in advance of december 15th.....should be another great night!

there was a dry run (actually quite wet) last night: http://www.movingtargetzine.com/article/impromptu-roller-race

The fastest time recorded last night was 20.67 by Seb.

Gulp.

Seb Coe?

There has been faster, posted by a rower, not even a bleedin' cyclist.............

When it comes to rowing, I'm pretty quick - just ask my wife, or anyone in authority ;)

This is Saturday night. I'm still free up. Anyone else thinking of going and having a crack at the all-comers thing?

I'm definately going.............

I wanna know how to win.. please tell me. :)

Ahhhhh............coaching, my specialist subject. My coaching advice helped Jos to win the open Dutch courier champs ealier this year.

Here are a few pointers (if you are really lucky Winston will add his two penneth worth)

In order to win you need to post a quicker time than everyone else and in order to do that you must cycle faster than everyone else. This means you must move your legs very quickly (so that they look like a blur in the inevitable photo's that will be taken).

Would you like some dietry advice?

Hey, i'm looking to lose weight but i'm not really sure how to go about doing it.

What do you think?

cut off your head?

which one?

And then ride a 200k audax

no dinner allowed until you win....it worked with Jos....

The full training manual and top tips(seriously) will be released just before the LFGSS / Rollapaluza race on this site....feel free to completey disregard it as plenty of people do!

but the Rapha roller race is a good opportunity to get a practice in.....if you make it into the knockout rounds and join Caspar and I in the boxing ring, be sure to identify yourselves as forum users and we'll give you the top tips.....live....no-one need ever know, for your ears only etc...

ill be there...do we have to register for the have-a-go race? my first go.

Yep.

in advance.....??

No only on the night , you know that!

I know I know that, but I thought your answer was unclear so I thought I'd take the place of an interested forumer and try to get you to clarify which you now have....thanks.

thanks winston...and caspar. lookin forward to it.
