2014-05-04 LFGSS Track Day VIII 2.0

Yes pls; I am planning to reach by 10:30/45

in for zuschauen / heckles and beer mit indra and elra

Cool, I'll try to get the Ho-train express there quicker

Can I ask that before we start maybe some one, I'm happy to do this, just reminds every one to concentrate!! Some riders get caught up in the start of a sprint, put thier heads down and forget their line, don't want to sound like a grump but I'm sure a little safety speech wouldn't go a miss...

I would second this (although not sure I'm experienced enough to give the chat), especially after what happened today

What happened today?

Do you have a megaphone volunteer now, amey/laner?

I think this may be the last update

This early start business has thrown me. Are spectators still allowed to crack open a can of Red Stripe at 11.30? Seems a bit wrong. I might have to bring the Trangia and make Irish coffees again.

What happened today?

What happened today?

Two crashes today at inters:

First one was guy had a massive blow out and seems like he lost control/fail to get back down to the track safely and ended up crashing his bike to the top of the fence and nearly cause a massive pile up behind him.

Second one was literally half a lap after when a coach (Jo) and rider touched wheels and crashed during rotations and I think the coach was in really bad shape (possibly something broken when walking back to the track)

Oh crap!
Guess I'm going to have to change that skidded out gator on the front then

But were the bikes OK?

That's a little early for me. I'm planning leaving Grind in Putney 10:30ish for a very relaxed ride over.

So are you bedwetting from bedwetting, Henry? :)

No, one had a blowout.

Hope the coach isn't too badly injured. That's terrible to get injured while you're volunteering. :(

Ugh. I heard something happen while i was getting my bike out of the container this morning. Was hoping it wasn't a crash. :(

Given that I've only been on the track once this year, I think spectating is the sensible option for me tomorrow.

Could anyone who is coming quite early bring a track pump? And maybe a valve extender too?

Cheers!

Have track pump will travel. No valve extenders though :(

Valve extender is in the bag.

Too nice a day not to race......

Any sign of rain at Herne Hill?

A few hipster at canning town leaving in 5

I am leaving in 15; can someone bring plain sheets of A4 paper? I have an A5 notebook; what is the best place around HH to exchange notes for coins?
