Eek that's really low numbers!

Was the coaching good, mostly skills training or fitness? Full report please 😀

I'm going next week, work permitting, you reckon it's cool just to show up, can't see where to book.

Did anyone go to the session last night?

Looking for a 1" stem, 110-120 ish, for a beater. Any about?

This is very exciting! 😀 Is it a weekly thing, do you just turn up on the night or need to book?

There's the sprint track league at Herne Hill this Saturday evening. It's really low key, perfect if you want to play at sprinting, see if you like it. I did my first of one last month and loved it. Sign on the line 6.30pm. Hopefully see some of you there 😀

Whoops, just bought another vulpine original rain jacket in a colour I prefer. If anyone wants my military green one medium, in very good condition, message me, £20.

I got one of these too, bought in their last sample sale. Still holding up in the rain and the only waterproof I've had that doesn't get sweaty. I've got a medium and am size 12/14 with broad shoulders and fits perfect :)

Ah @lucyh, this bike would've been perfect but I just bought another CX bike that was more expensive and not as nice :(

Lovely bike and great price, sure someone will snap it up soon!

My f85x arrived. First thoughts are it's fucking heavy and brakes are crap but otherwise rides nice. Might take the shit disc brakes off and get some cantis.

Can't agree with this more. I had my level 3 today and dropped out at the second exercise because I got so spooked by the other riders. I thought I had enough experience, 3 skills sessions at LVV and over 50hrs at HHV this year. But 7 out of 9 riders in my group had never done a skills session and had never done and didn't know how to do pairs above the blue with one lap changes. I thought it was basic that you should have done these exercises beforehand, but it isn't. Riders going into stage 3 could've only had a couple hours of track time and done no research into the exercises expected and unfortunately I had 7 of these in my group. Anyway had a cry and I've got over it, £20 down, don't make the same mistake!

My Condor Lavoro, love riding this bike.

Yeah kinda as bad as each other. Decided on the 'Snozberry. It's going to be mud coloured most of the time anyway!

I've been looking at that Felt, seems good value. Anyone got one, any good? Not sure I can get past the awful colours though..

Last round of Women's track league tonight. Perfect evening for some track racing. Come race or support!

Anyone tried continental GP4000s on an indoor track, I realise they're not fast tyres but are they ok grip wise?

I'm looking for a SMP that is the same shape/width as the Avant but with less padding, anyone know if that exists or which one is the closest match?

Thanks for the info @laner, will ask them about loaning one for the summer series.

Yes there are bikes to borrow, and yes you can change the pedals. Be ace to see you there :D

Went to the Sunday session at the weekend, first time in months. Forgot how much fun it is. There was Marymoor crawl lolz, I need to learn to track stand!

I'll be there again tonight, looking forward to having a go at some cyclocross racing at the summer league :) I need to sort a bike still, if anyone has a 56cm/medium ish cyclocross bike for sale, do get on touch.

:D If you race it, I will!

Just seen rock up and ride starts at the Peckham track at 11am tomorrow (Friday). Will be heading down 11.30, anyonelse unworking tomorrow, come join.

Eileen Gray RIP. Super cool woman extraodinaire. Thank you Eileen for everything you achieved.

Awesome interview, from a few years ago. It's a long read but really worth it.
