Yep thats right. Blacktop Disciple took to the velodrome yesterday for part one of his track acreditation training. He was a little bit nervous, this being his first time and all but the non stop chatter of Pauline helped to distract him. It was one hour of brilliant fun and I cant wait for the next time. It was good to see seven of the Glenmarnock present.
A big thankyou must go to Morley for all his hard work in organising the training for us. Thanks Morley.

Another good club turnout for part 2 of the track acreditation. I counted ten including me. What a brill time albeit more demanding than last weeks. We practiced through and off and follow the leader. I was just getting into the zone with the through and off, having just exercised a slick manoeuvre, when a chance glance upwards saw a rider way up the banking stall. What followed was in slow motion as he slid down in front of me. I had nowhere to go and rode over his bike. I went flying. He was fine but I tore open my wrist and ended up getting 3 stitches. Roll on next time. The award must go to Paulines group for the most slick through and off.

3rd session now booked for all 10 on 22nd April starting at 8pm. This is two hours and there is more riding in groups. It's fun. There are regular breaks.
Question for all 10, should I book stage 4 for the week after, or wait till 3 is done?
PS I will put photos up from 1& 2 soon.
