  • I have edited the tread to show the next session without starting another thread.

    still need a few more riders!

  • RPM: Both Rose and I will be back.

  • I'm in Somerset next weekend. :(

    (Well, Somerset = good, but it would have been great to fit in another track session before the end of the season).

  • It's not next weekend, it isn't for a few weeks

  • Yay! I'm in there like swim wear!

    So do we have to pay up in advance, or do we just turn up?

  • miss socks. It was good to see you down there and thanks for looking after Camilla and pulling her round. She is trying to get out of school for the 18th but cannot be sure of success yet.

  • Yay! I'm in there like swim wear!

    So do we have to pay up in advance, or do we just turn up?

    you can pay on the day, but I think all future sessions may have to be pay on booking so we don't end up losing like yesterday.

  • Fully booked, boo :( I'd love to come along to this - if anyone drops out drop me a msg?
    Utter novice, mind....and will need to hire bike there if I can join in

    N :)

  • Not fully booked! we still have a couple of places left.

  • I don't think I should. Ever since I crashed, I'm having problems with my groin (ooer etc). I can't walk much and cycling only really to get places. Boo.

  • Ouch, plurabelle, hope you get that checked out and sorted soon!

  • Ta, Oliver. It's weird; it's sort of got worse since the crash, after which everything temporarily felt pretty much fine. I suppose I'll have to find a physio, or something equally tedious.

  • Hello everyone,
    the session is this Sunday, details as follows:

    Riders requiring hire bikes to arrive at 11:30am (you can put your own pedals on if you bring spanners)
    Riders should have suitable clothing for cycling, including helmets and gloves, helmets are available for free hire.
    Bring snacks and liquid (you can get water on site)
    Riders wishing to use their own bikes should ensure they are free of brakes/extraneous attachments and are fitted with drop handlebars with bar-end plugs and grips/tape.
    Gearing is restricted to a maximum of 90" and a minimum of 82" it is strongly recommended that you use a gear of 84-88 Gear inches for the group training activities.
    Cost for the session will be £8 for 20 or more people, less than 18 people it will be £9 and so on (we basically need to cover track hire, whoever turns up)
    Track time will be approximately 12pm to 2pm
    Riders can move within groups (at coaches discretion) and fast learning novices may be asked to join the elite/experienced group, all newly inducted riders will ride in the novice group unless instructed otherwise by the coaches.

  • Rob

    Any plans for this to be resurected once HH is open?

    Am gagging to get on the track.

  • i've heard whispers of a regular ladies day this season. don't have any info on it tho?

  • I think there's a regular Sunday afternoon women only session planned.

    Rob is riding at Calshot today so we'll have to wait until he's back for confirmation.
