2010 Herne Hill Velodrome Track League

Rollapaluza cc riders have a reputation for falling off that far exceeds the confines of HHV, so I wouldn't worry about that.

I've only come off once at Manchester and twice at Newport.

Expensive in bibshorts and skin.

So what's on for tonight then JC?

Double 20k - not your cup of tea anyway!

ohhhhh
2 x 20 kms I wouldn't miss it for the world :)

Fucking YES!

How is that raced? One race of 84 laps?

Na, a 20k points race, then 20k scratch. And some 3 lap dashes and handicap sprints for those who enjoy that sort of thing.

packing for this evening:

1 - spare legs. check.
2 - local anaesthetic for afterwards. check.

3 - Chamois cream - Check

4 - Camelback - check

5 - excuses - check

I got real bad cramp at last summers 'double 20k'.
Putting plenty of salt in my water bottle.

6 - Make a list of all the things to bring tonight - Check

5 - excuses - check

I always have my excuse bag with me. A great deal of variety in there dependent on what is required for the moment.

Yeah I think I will wait until Sunday before I get back to the track. My injuries are not fully recovered and I am not like these youngsters when it comes to healing anymore.

Not my cup of tea really 2x20k anyhow. Have fun in the sun :)

Shame. See you next time.

That's rich given the number of VCL riders who've come down too in recent weeks.

Considering there are 27 VCL's and 8 Rolla's at track league (more than any other clubs) and they tend to almost all come every week there are gonna be more rolla's and vcl coming off than anyone else.

Everyone will be pleased to here that no Rollas or VCL riders crashed tonight.

So no-one did then?

No-one crashed.

andyp was the only one there.

Yet he still failed to score any points. What a loser.

actually I do see andyp as a bit of a Boardman character, going for the hour would suit him down tothe ground!

Boardman was a hillclimber, not a sportiver.
