Whoever knew where the light switch was, was late to DISC tonight - so for 15mins I got to do laps in the dark - it was fantastic, Lucky there were not too many on the track or it would have been mayhem.
Although - with some rear lights it would have worked ok.
Anyone done dark velodrome riding? Is it some sort of thing that people do?
now you’re talking… a club! Like Pete’s idea of a madison in the dark with luminous skinsuits and reflective panels, dancers and loud musac. Although it kinda sounds like a Bacardi Rum commercial or maybe some boring scene from the lamest sci-fi series ever made. hmmn. Maybe we can workshop it at the next general meeting.
There must be outfits involved though. See http://www.londonrollergirls.com/ for more info (or search for any combination of: roller girl demolition derby).
I’m looking forward to a future where we can have a showdown at the Museum, between the bmxKids, RollerGirls and US! And maybe throw in a few skaters, because they’ve always got video cameras to record this kind of nonsense.
