Committee Alan McLean Posted December 17, 2012 Author Committee Report Share Posted December 17, 2012 I confirm that I got an individual entry. We will have to practise standing starts on the night going up the ramp to track centre. James, would you like a wheelers top? Or does our manager have reindeer skinsuits for us?

2023 Subscriptions charlie p Posted December 18, 2012 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted December 18, 2012 Guys Do not know what has gone wrong here. I emailed jan on 13/12@ 21.24 confirming team. I followed that up with another email and then a third. She tells me she did not receive first email which I do not understand as I still have it as sent. She has now come back to me to say we are first reserve. Not a happy situation as not keen. to go if not guaranteed a place. As it appears to be my fault I will go along with what u guys want to do.

Big Al Posted December 18, 2012 Report Share Posted December 18, 2012 With one thing and another I've managed to not train for 5 days and am feeling crap. I'm more than happy not to race, as we're not guaranteed a race and I'm sure it will be mainly hanging about for 3 hours for 4 1/2 minutes of racing.

Committee Alan McLean Posted December 18, 2012 Author Committee Report Share Posted December 18, 2012 Hi Yes this is a nuisance but I am taking Katie anyway so will also take my kit in the hope of a ride. There are bound to be cancellations. At least I can enjoy the atmosphere and spend 30 minutes on rollers and have a pie. As Al says, assuming no rechaifage, refauchage, refucgahe, whatever, it was only ever going to be 8 laps of pain or maybe 16 if we got through a round. I think Janette has cut it to 2k. Bonus Christmas Prize Question! Firstly assume SC run a standard tournament knockout with no separate youths comp, refauchage thing or 3rd/4th place race. If there are forty-one teams then how many heats must there be to produce a winner? Answers to my premium rate phone line or post here if too lazy to phone. Winner gets a new custom Pinarello with Di2 electronic shifting and Zipp Firecrest 202 wheelset personally delivered by Bradley Wiggins and his nan and then goes for a pint with Brad and Mark Cavendish.* Alan *Terms and conditions apply. Winner may not receive actual wheelset, or bike, or see Bradley or Mark. But his nan might come. (no, not really.

Committee Alan McLean Posted December 20, 2012 Author Committee Report Share Posted December 20, 2012 Pursuit was only 2k due to time restraints. There were about 40 teams with a separate youths mini league. We all tried very hard but lack of practise showed with enormous gaps opening between us. James' blistering start ensured we all scrabbled to get on for a lap or two and then the early effort showed with splintering and eventually three of us finished in a glorious time of 2.41 which was NOT last! Some of the senior teams were v good but main credit goes to our young riders from the Jets and WOSCA in matching skinsuits demonstrating perfect technique. Full credit to Kenny and Martin for getting them up that standard. Awaiting Colin's massive photo submission any time now..... Lovely evening, lots of pies and chat in track centre.

Administrators Jannza Posted December 20, 2012 Administrators Report Share Posted December 20, 2012 Few dodgy starts that required a restart! Timed 26 races last night so trying to remember who it was. Might have been Scotia all grown up or if not them it was team in racing green, black, red, gold.
