2010-04-09 Fri - Hackney Drag Sprints

Looks great at the moment, will be down at the pub for 7

So whats the word? This on or off?
And on google maps, it is on the road behind the Big Yellow Storage place, where it says london concrete?
edit - just been there defo off.

Thats the place. We ended up at East drinks. Well after a few had gone home 4 of us ended up in east drinks then Gus went home and Ham sandwich turned up. A nice night all in. looking forwadr to next week for some racing.

We are definitely looking to run this this Friday (9/4/2010). There's plenty of shelter along the Greenway and as we've seen over the w/end, showers tend to pass quickly. Directions on the original post, and will look to run another meet up at 7pm at Royal Inn on the Park looking to be on the Greenway at 7:30pm.

Feel free to sign up here to race or simply wave your pom poms

The weather is looking really good for this. Good move to delay it by a week.

Oooh. I might make this... goody.

Be good to see you down their Skully - bring down Skully Jr if it's not past his bedtime ;)

Might pop down. Curious what GI you guys will be running?

re GI -not too high and not too low. The course we'll be running is only 200 metres so anything too high and you won't have the opportunity to reach maximum cadence. You are probably the best judge of where that is but it's certainly less than you'd be spinning at Herne Hill

I'm going to be running 102 GI joes!

Jimb you're the world's biggest liar. LAIZ. STOP TEH LAIZING!

What you gonna be running there Mr Radius.

@jimbo Still gonna test out the 16 to see if 48/16 will be too high, if it is then 48/18...

48/18 is perfectly decent for this. Gets you into a spin. Any higher and you could be grinding the gear for over half the course.

I'm going to be on 48/18. I think this is going to be a close one.
