Yip EWEP...they are sitting in the possesion of the track organisers. Just ask Gary to arrange one for you.

 

I hope you guys have a good turnout' date=' and I'm glad to see Gary is willing to get involved.

Thanks Simon. Hope to see you there along with some of the old guard. Do you know if Hilton found a bike yet? Please pass this info onto him if you can and everyone else you know.

Gary' date=' can you send this through to Club100 (and probably all the other clubs)? - the more people that know about it, the better. I know Club100 wants to get more ppl on the track and this seems like a good way to go about it

Who can I send it too at club100, e-mail address preferably

 

news@club100.co.za should do it

For anyone loking for a track bike. Jeff Howes has a Micrsosoft team Raleigh for sale. Almost brand new. Size is Large.

Its complete and he wants R3000.

PM me if interested.

PS. I hope this new venture works as track racing in South Africa really needs a revamp. If all the riders and clubs get envolved there should be no reason why this cannot be a big success. Good luck.

I went down to this event on Saturday and wow... !

I must say, I was really nervous, as the last time I went on to the track it was pretty intimidating - just "heres a bike, go round the track.

The guys were super friendly and accomodating, not pretentious at all (well most of them at least) and really wanted to get people on the track. At least 5 ppl stopped to chat with me while warming up, giving advice and encouraging me.

Although there wansn't a great turnout for the other cats (Elite cat had quite a few) it was still well done.

Mallo also came down and he can vouch that it was helluva good fun and a real eye-opener... you have no idea where the red-line is until you've done a 1500m!

So come on folks, lets get down there and support this initiative, it really is worthwhile and only takes 2 hours. (and with me riding, you can be guaranteed that you wont come in last place either)

Now i gotta start looking for a track bike!

Great to hear you enjoyed it. Sorry I was not there (Something to do with torn groin ligaments, tendons and muscles).

 

Anyway please keep on coming downa and try bring a cycling mate with next time to join you. Please see upcoming posts regarding training at the track during the week.

Before you know it you will be flying.

 

Like I said we are trying to grow the sport.

 

Cheers
