Just a heads up…track league starts on 25th April. There will be 2 track league training sessions on 4th and 11th April. These sessions are for experienced riders only.

If you want to ride Track League but are not accredited you will need to do some training sessions pretty soon. Im not quite sure when and what these are, probably best to contact WW.

The track league registration form is on this page..registration form.

    Looking forward to it!

    Are those two "track league training sessions" just like the normal monday sessions but on a friday?
  • tducketttduckett
    I did one last year and it was similar to a normal track league, a bit of warming up and then a few of the normal style races but with fewer people.

    Well actually I'm glad you asked because I coated my track chain in paraffin wax.

    This season, i will be mostly using...ahem, cough, looks at the floor....clinchers.

    Mark F is borrowing my mavic elipse clinchers shod with Ultremo zx for a trip to Newport which is great because i will get to find out if they will stick to a wooden velodrome before i use them myself on London. Thanks Mark!

    I've only ridden 80 miles in the last six months so I'll be riding very slowly at Newport... So if those tyres are sticky enough to keep me upright next week they'll certainly keep you out of trouble!

    Tim, your Ultremo ZX tyres were fine at Newport yesterday, even when riding around the top of the banking at my (obviously) modest speed. I'd definitely be happy to fit a pair of those to my own wheels. Thanks for the loan.

    My head remembered what to do on the track but my legs had clearly forgotten...
