Committee Alan McLean Posted November 29, 2012 Committee Report Share Posted November 29, 2012 Probably getting a bit ahead of myself having only "raced" in accred but I am going to commit to this. It would be good to have a team, see BC page by Janette. Who in? Can we get three/four teams? Alan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2023 Subscriptions P McDonald Posted November 30, 2012 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted November 30, 2012 Anyone know if the track league is on that night and this is just a part of it - or is this taking the place of the league?

2023 Subscriptions Ramsay Posted November 30, 2012 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted November 30, 2012 Can't find the details, but I assume it is a team pursuit? I've not finished my accreditation, but would be keen for this if I can take part. Fitness not great, especially after boozy dinner last night, followed by boozy dinner tonight and boozy rugby club dance tomorrow night!

2023 Subscriptions charlie p Posted December 13, 2012 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted December 13, 2012 having spoken to Al and James macdonald I have entered for this. Think we have room for one more. Any takers and if so tomorrow last day for entries Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Al Posted December 13, 2012 Report Share Posted December 13, 2012 Yup, room for one more. Alan McLean, you about? Or Richard if you feel fitter? No pointy hats or Aero bars to worry about, they're out the picture for this one for safety's sake say the organisers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Committee Alan McLean Posted December 13, 2012 Author Committee Report Share Posted December 13, 2012 Charlie/Al, I can join a team if place still available. I have entered the evening hoping for other events but it looks like pursuiting only. This will be interesting. My involvement in youth coaching has confirmed my impression that it is really technical as well as tiring. It took our top youngsters three hours to learn the basics of a track standing start. I have done...none. I would need about a thousand quid's worth of track time to become barely non-dangerous. Meantime I am going to try some standing starts on my drive. Martin, you can put the pursuit bars and pointy helmets away. Banned by Janette in the interest of fairness and safety. Alan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2023 Subscriptions martin Posted December 13, 2012 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted December 13, 2012 Meantime I am going to try some standing starts on my drive. BC coach Tim Buckle's advice is to practice your standing starts on a hill. Martin, you can put the pursuit bars and pointy helmets away. Banned by Janette in the interest of fairness and safety. Who's interested in fairness? The youngsters had an 8 hour workshop on team pursuit just a few weeks ago. They were looking forward to ripping it up.

Members Richard Posted December 13, 2012 Members Report Share Posted December 13, 2012 Yup, room for one more. Alan McLean, you about? Or Richard if you feel fitter? No pointy hats or Aero bars to worry about, they're out the picture for this one for safety's sake say the organisers Cheers for the offer, Al. Unfortunately I'm well and truly out of the game just now. I've cycled a bit over the last couple of days, but I'm still quite chesty. No hard efforts for the time being.

2023 Subscriptions P McDonald Posted December 13, 2012 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted December 13, 2012 I picked up a Ribble 750ml bottle from the JWCC zone at the ned last night, so if its yours let me know, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Al Posted December 13, 2012 Report Share Posted December 13, 2012 I'm sure they did Martin, but as the lucky little ... darlings are in the minority getting quality track time and coaching then they are possibly the only people safe/competent enough to do so apart from the Edinburgers who've had a track for a while and those that went to play with them over the last couple of years. Sounds like a wise decision to me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
