2010 Herne Hill Velodrome Track League

To get round the time thing you could do them before everything (though problems getting home from work) or after everything, as the light isn't a massive issue if you aren't riding in a bunch (though everyone likely to be shattered after last race)

or the roadies could go to palace, hillingdon, hog hill etc..

joking!

+1 to indv. pursuit things - but it does take a lot of time so people who don't like it will probably be miserable about it.

Team sprint tonight. Should be fun, I hope there are a few teams up for it.

dont think am going tonight. Very tired.

Ohhhh Tom!
Only a couple of weeks left too. I'm a bit disappointed I am unable to make the final Saturday. I missed it last year too :(

3 more weeks after this one! Where did the season go?

JC is out by the sound of things

Is it really only 3 weeks after this????? Shite, am on holiday next week too.

Is it really only 3 weeks after this?????

Yup. Last one on the 18th August and then Finale on the 21st. If that's like last year it doesn't count towards overall standings though

Even if it did have points, Im not sure I could earn the 196 I would need to beat Bryans 200!

The scores haven't been update for a couple of weeks either. So he probably has about 250 by now!

I even came 7th in the trackstand comp!

I'm out. Been up since 5 a.m. and am knackered.

How was it? How'd the team sprints go????

we had a poor run and only managed 3rd when we should have got 2nd

But we have many excuses we can fall back upon :)

Funny though that there was 2 seconds between us and Miles' team yet I was directly at the top of the track and saw you and Miles crossing the lines, I knew they edged it but it looked a lot closer than 2s!

we will come back stronger

I feel a battle of the excuses coming on.... I also have many available to prove we could have gone faster as well!

Yeah there was never 2 seconds.
And we started in the home straight which was definitely harder on the night and the fact we never heard the start gun.......
2 extra inches make all the difference but hard in that wind

Anyway it was a very good night overall. It was the most tired I have ever been after e Wednesday night. My legs were on fire after the handicap sprint final. Getting home was hell

I was tired too, I drank a whole bottle of wine.

I feel a battle of the excuses coming on....

You'll never win that one;)

I try to look at the "excuses" as problems that need solutions before the next race, things like wind/bad starters/judges etc. you can't do anything about, but I can definitely do something about the fact I was at least 1mph slower than usual at top speed.

Our team was 4th but only half a second behind 3rd team. We could of gone faster as well!

I like to think it might have something to do with the lack of proper man 1
