2013-08-25 - Keirin! at Herne Hill

Lots more info up on site now, includes rider info AND list of star riders you could get the chance to race against: http://www.keirin.cc

.

Good flyer. Would love to race but been a good year since I was on the track. Will come to watch instead.

All of this! Plus I would never be fast enough to race even if I had been going to track regularly! Looks like a hella sweet day with japanese food and beers happening too. What with Hell's Belles on the Friday, this is going to be one of those epic bike fun weekends.

FFffuuuuuu...

Could you move it back two weeks?

I can't see any of the extra info on the site, am I being a bit slow? My entry is in regardless, looking forward to getting spanked by some class riders.

If you got that flyer made into some half decent posters I'd definitely buy one for 10 notes or summat. Could be an additional money spinner?

Given there was almost no info on the site beyond the date and flyer previous to a couple of hours ago....?

I was referring to the rider list specifically; you're right though, there is more than there was.

Rider list on the BC event page....not all entrants show, they have to be approved by the promoter first.

Want to ride this, as I don't work sundays.

I guess I need to ride novice, I don't hold a BC licence or ride wednesdays, but ride mondays every week.
How would I signup before, without BC membership?
Edit: Just needed an account. Signed up for Novice.

What speed will the derny be going upto in Novice? For gearing.

Er yes, some poeple appear to be confused, you don not need to be a member of BC to register (MikeC), you just need a username and password on the BC site...

just over 40kph, though we hope you will go faster when it pulls off!

Yeah sorry, bit slow to realise only an account is needed.

Thanks, I'll try! Maybe cake on the finishline to incentivise?

would have loved to be racing in this, fractured clavicle and no rides since before July prohibit it though.
hope to get down and watch

I want to take part in this as a novice,
But having just moved to the Uk from Australia, I've got no bike or bike shoes/helmet/Lycra...
Can anyone help/offer suggestion/lend me a bike/suggest a sponsor

Yeah but when I try to enter online it won't lt me proceed without first purchasing BC membership
Am I he only one finding this?

Not been on the track for two years now so may give it a miss anyway as I will only get smoked

when I tested this yhere was an option to join BC, or just create a username and password on the BC site.

Could do with a few more entrants in all cats

I ride at HH most Monday's but have never ridden a Keirin before. I'm tempted to stick myself in the Novice cat. Will 48:15 be high enough gearing?

48 x 14 would be better.

G'wan son!

OK, just tested thism you do not need to join BC, you only need to create a website user account, select the "Iam am new to British cycling and want to enter this event" If you are a lapsed BC member it will recognise your (previously registered) email address...you may want to use another?

I'll be on 48x15, so at least you'll beat me

winston. sorry i'm a bit confused. is it allright for us non categorised riders that usually do the saturday intermediates to enter as novice?

Just paid for registration into the Novice category. We did a Keirin tonight at HH... I came 4th outta 6.
