LFGSS.CC Racing Calendar 2015

Post your league/ plans/ whether you can give anyone a lift/ etc here.
I'm planning- early season Mallory Park, then some Evening races up here, and we'll find out in a few months if I'll then be moving down for Surrey league.

Side Note- I really want to get a team or 2 into these two events:

1. Comienzo Del Verano. 9/10th May. Its in Nottingham, but is a 2/3/4 CAT, 2 day stage race and last year looked excellent.
   
2. Fin Del Verano- 19th/20th September. Same as above, different courses.
   

Well into this.

Anyone doing Imperial Winter Series at Hillingdon? I've signed up for the first race on 17th Jan; they are every Saturday till March I think.

Can you PM me a link Amey, I thought they were done in Feb. Would join later in the series- after the exams.

I'm up in Nottingham. Will be probably starting the season in March with my local club Beeston RC.

Looking forward to starting!

@eyebrows you in Notts?

Beeston. Good choice. ;)

9/10 May. Comienzo de Verano.
3 up... probably put 1 in reserve because Forum.
Who's interested?
@6pt, @dbr, @Hovis, @amey, @branwen, @FixedCheese, @jim1985, @Sumo, @dimi3 @ anyone else?

how did it end?

Caught. 3 laps later.
Worth the go though.

If you'd ridden on the drops they'd never have got you.

As we all know Drops are less aero than Hoods:

Tempted...

Could be yeah. Can this be done on a day license? Also, I'm having trouble googling it... where?

Its here. In Notts.
2 days. Will be on British Cycling later this month.
Probably not a day licence, I don't know though.

I remember changing my road position, after Big Maggie mentioned they'd tested this stuff, during a race commentary years ago.
