Well, my 2 have confirmed and the other 2 declined. I have asked yet another victim cycling enthusiast and he will let me know tomorrow.

Just found THIS from our last visit.

Well done from 2018.

Just to make you feel bad one of my son's team-mates does a 14-second flying lap. She's 15

The way my foot has been ill settle for sub 15 minutes.

Plantar Fasciitus apparantly... means walking is "somewhat uncomfortable" and I've not worked up the nerve to get on the bike since November since putting any weight on the big toe is "interesting".

Just getting my excuses in early

Advance notice for Saturday evening; there's a big cycle jumble on there Sunday morning, so it could be quite busy with people setting up. Just so you're aware you may have spectators

Your name will be added to the list.

And...........

As we stand:

Colly +1
@DCLane
@DiddlyDodds +1
@I like Skol +2
@kesteven+1
@Steve H+1
@Oldfentiger
@StefH

I think this is the definitive list. If you are coming and are NOT on the list let me know.

Sadly we have had members unable to turn up due to a variety of reasons, health issues, family reasons etc but we are now only 2 down from a full house.
If you haven't been before it's best get to the venue with time to spare. We are on the track from 8pm. So allow time to get signed in, changed, collect the bike, get into the track centre and so on.

Just a little inspiration for those attending, or anyone who is thinking about it...

There is always some good stuff at the jumble. Must not go !

May have another +1 @colly if there's space. A Manchester Wheelers rider from Monday & Friday night's racing may be there.

See you all tomorrow.

Just having a roast dinner, sure to set me up good for riding at the track.....

 

[StefH]

I'm bringing someone else with me. I hope that's OK?

Well, that was..... Painful.

Turns out that trying to ignore the Plantar Fasciitus and hope I could pedal was slightly less sensible than normal.

However on the good side, the foot pain has somewhat receded.... Largely overwhelmed be the discomfort of the track burns received whilst getting a first hand example of exactly what happens when the pain in your foot stops you pedalling a fixed wheel bike (clue... You fall off, violently)

OUCH - GWS!

I hope the rest of you stayed on your bikes and enjoyed the evening?
