Yeah it wasn’t a question I was genuinely posing. I’m not sure my knees can even handle fixed anymore to be honest. It’s been a while....

Should be good for meIs it flat
Mainly - Volcano circuit CCW 7 laps.
Yeah, i'd say front brake too. If you're going to ride on roads then you'd be silly not to, given the incident at Old Street where that guy ran into and killed that woman last year.I might just join you whorty. Just about finished building my fixed gear. Maybe I’ll put up some pics later if I can escape the house for a maiden voyage. Now... front brake or no front brake, that is the question

Go SS rather than fixed, choose a nice spinning gear and you'll be fine. Even I can get up 7-8% inclines on my SS, it's just a matter of choosing a gear that suits and doesn't destroy your knees. You'll love ToC on a SS, especially when you beat those around you who have geared bikes
Flat enough - should be loads doing that so should be lots of chance to draft.
Is her name Voss?

Not sure how you register as a team but I am sure someone will work it out. The zsun riders simply stuck zsun after their names and I think ride in the zsun kit. You could chose a kit to make yourselves more visible to each other

I’m going to ride fixed for a while and see how the knee likes it. It’s a very different feeling when you feel like you’re locked into the rear wheel. But in honestly I can see myself ending up ss which is lots of fun too!
I’ll defo put a front brake on it either way. The handlebars I’ve put on aren’t narrow enough in diameter to allow for the brake lever I’ve bought which is a little annoying... so back to the drawing board there.
Side issue but the old street accident is an interesting one for me. It’s quite an interesting case for loads of reasons. I’m defintely an advocate for having brakes but I genuinely don’t think it made any difference that day if you read how it actually played out. But it was of course very tragic none the less, and allowed for lots of good debate around road safety.
Probably a conversation for another day

Seems like it. You can push the plus sign in Zwift Companion for the ZA Group rides/races, even if you’re not in the ZA (I’m not).
