If you want to race all you need is a track legal bike (or you can hire one) and need to do an induction which costs £8 and is at 13:00 on every Saturday; moar details. You'd have to do induction a Saturday before this ideally; if you think you are a pro / ex-team GB and dont need an induction then >>>>>>>>>>>> Another important thing to mention is velodrome's wet weather policy; the weather laughed at us last time.

**Entry fee: **£8 mainly to cover velodrome rental and other costs.

PRIZE SPONSORS SO FAR: Fixedgearlondon/Lockwhip, Restrap, Brixton Cycles, Milltag, Rapha, Swrve

Is this May 4th or 5th April? Could do with clearing up in the first post.

If I can't organise myself to race then I can certainly lend a hand on the organising!

Fantastic!

Could I suggest a Lo-Pro/Bro-Pro/HHSB 10 minute pursuit, 6 riders on the track, last man caught or furthest distance to win (same as roadmans' pursuit at Good Friday meet). Could be a giggle!

May 4, surely?

That's what I thought, but you don't seem 100% sure either...

may 4th

Do we need to split this into ladies and men's lists again? Would be great to get a strong list of ladies again.

That's probably a good idea

Australian Pursuit would be fun, tempting..
