London velodrome accreditation
For all those who attended our club session and may be thinking of doing more at LVVP this may be of interest to you.
If you want to ride open group training sessions (they call them SQT's) or want to ride track league there, you need to be accredited regardless of past experience. Accreditation at outdoor velodromes like Welwyn doesn't count but once accredited this will cover you for the other indoor velodromes. Im keen to get this process done as there will hopefully be a winter track league at London.
So, what you need to do is register as a member and follow the instructions on their page Here
Once you are registered you can book your next stage of accreditation. there are 4 stages, the first stage being the taster and the coaches that we had on the 24th May did say that they would sign us off for level 1.
Now, i have registered and went to have a look at booking level2 but my booking options only show level1 as an option, presumably because the system doesn't recognise me as having done level1. I have emailed LVVP and will let you know what happens as presumably this will be the same for everyone who attended on the 24th and wants to go further.

May be of interest to others, I've just created an account for Adam then gave the VeloPark Customer Services team a call on 08456 770 603. I asked how I go about getting the club session on 24th May to count as the 1st stage accreditation, they did it there & then over the phone - no questions asked.
From his membership page it looks as if I can now book stage 2 (if I wanted) - so I assume his records have been updated to show that Level 1 has been done.

Yes, i just got a mail back saying they have upgraded my membership and i can now book level2. So it looks like you just need to phone/email them and away you go.
