we are going to need lots of helpers for both our events. Adults as well as youthriders. We currently have 18 youth with racing licences so I am hoping for a full house. The club has 28 grass track bikes and some riders have their own so we have the bikes...all we need are the riders. Get down to Saturday sessions and get involved.
The 15th September event will be the end of the grass track season officially and we will have full marquee with BBQ and festivities. Hopefully Mark Wyer can also organise go-ride racing for our youngest club members...something for everyone.
plan to go for a road ride tomorrow as i am getting so little in these days as saturday is my best chance of a ride on the weekends.
would there be any interest in an evening grass track session in the week or is there too much going on?
Vincent you can have both! I'll be at the grass track and am currently planning to head off towards Saffron Walden afterwards if you would like to join.
having seen Mark's sportive tester planned for sunday i could always get miles in on that. Mark how about adding that to the sunday ride section on the forum to get more takers.
unsure about energy levels for track and to be honest the race in Letchworth was really tough, given how unfit I am to race. hope i am not just getting old but do feel totally unprepared for the interval style of riding which is grass track. I hope it is general lack of conditioning rather than something more sinister. so eitherway still only a maybe for track riding tomorrow. See how i feel in the morning.

There may not be a session next week as most will be riding Biggleswade in the afternoon.
