Sun Sept 21st, High-noon - LFGSS Track Day 2 at Herne Hill Velodrome

how about once you win one race or category and win something, you're inelligible for further prizes. so it spreads it around.

I was thinking the same thing, two prize maximum...

@ snowy, hopefully see you for a beer, will check what time vic is back

@ hilliewilly, what time you heading down on sunday, maybe I can tail you?

Some races to mull over;

Devil takes the hindmost
Keirin
Flying laps?
1 km time trials?
12 lap scratch

This is a good start. I'm liking the sound of it allready. Especialy the 1km time trials.

@ hilliewilly, what time you heading down on sunday, maybe I can tail you?

I'll be heading down about 11.30 if you fancy a tow?

Cool, i'll PM you my number and we can hook up, i'll be at the bottom of the road waiting for you in this.... oh and with a whip :)

Joe, do you want one of those cheap turbo saddles for a gift? The ones from Poland, I have one here spare (new), it can be the BoBoB prize for the fastest fatso on the circuit?

Sounds great, why the hell not! Let's pray to Chris Hoy for good weather, otherwise it's wet-weather TTs for prizes outside the Trinity... Hmmm, that wouldn't be too bad for a plan B, actually... ;)

1. wibble - inexperienced but keen
   

eyes glaze over caveman style, moans a deep, deep, hungry man-moan
Let's get together for a drink beforehand... ;)

excuse numbers 3,027 and 3,028 for not racing

back breaking week in the trenches (no, seriously)
playing rugby on Saturday in South-bloody-hampton (bastard new league with teams stupidly far away)

Looking forward to this fun. How many need to do the induction on day? I'm one of them.

I have an idea how to fairly distribute the prizes.
Why don't we have a points system like the formula one
For each race, the first person gets 10 point, second eight, third six and so on
Whoever has the most points at the end gets first choice of prize, second gets second pick etc...
That way, there should be enough for a lot of people ( hopefully ) and people will be really trying for placings.

Will require a bit more organizing but people will be racing for a real incentive too

that would work, it's not really more organization, just a bit of maths at the end.

for someone good at maths, like teenslain or snowy

Hippy is good at adding up

Omnium

Just cuz I wear nerdy maths teacher specs, doesn't make me Stephen fucking Hawking... We need Emilié and his spreadsheet skillz... And Snowy ain't comin'... Or were you just takin' the piss? Hmmm?

yeah,someone with a laptop would be good!

don't worry, me and the andyp is on the case.

we won't be able to do everything people want all in one afternoon, (not if we split the cats, which has been pretty much decided on) but we'll have some good racing, we'll try and find a balance between sprints and endurance

I was thinking the same thing, two prize maximum...

I'm for this too - maybe we can have some other prizes, i.e. best turned out rider, most entertaining suicide break that kind of thing (I might have a chance of winning one then!)

I am so looking forward to this - bright times.

programme sounds good. devil 2 or 4 off would be good. also, with so many in the list, wouldnt the time trial take ages to do?

im looking forward to the B Cat races :)

you're too fit for B cat. you did L2P!

im looking forward to the B Cat races :)

what, watching them between your cat A races?

not anymore. havent touched the road bike in 3wks and in my last HH saturday visit, the juniors kicked my arse in the 'not-so-fast' race group!

hmm.

lots of seriously speedy folks in that list up there

can i just compete in the bike porn comp?

the cats will be decided fairly. I predict some people being surprised to find themselves in cat A!
