Loved it, i thought it would be worse than it was.
Billy is a champ and got me going any one thinking about it should do it.
The guys are really helpful as long as you show your keen.
Any one here do thurs night training with balmoral club>
I ended up having to miss out as I was getting ready for my trip OS tomorrow. Probably for the best as given the timing it would have probably been the night I end up getting caught up in a crash and fucking up my trip.
Seriously addictive though isn’t it Dayne?
Yeah it is painful but addictive.
Thought i was going to have a spew after the last race,
good to hear you got through all three though!
Kinda I help out a little- pm me
So i signed up online on cycling.org its a terrible site but under construction.
Heres the sign up link.SportsTG
For those who wont to come along.
thanks dayne! signed up and hopefully i will be on the track come tuesday!
Sounds good i might see you out there.
so whos doing any of the carnivals? i think dan said he was going to do some?
i had too much crit racing(is there such a thing?) and not enough track racing lately but i still wouldnt mind doing at least the balmoral carnival.
If you haven’t already…
For safeties sake get along to some track racing before the carnivals please- cabooture on saturday arvo or chandler tuesday night.
I’m doing them all- and maybe the Bundy Cup, and even the Rocky one later- but I’m an old bastard so I’ll be with the other oldies and let you kids play among yourselves.
Please read the advice I gave Dayne earlier in this thread re gearing, perhaps an 84 would be a better choice for the first couple of weeks- eh Dayne?
Also please make yourself known to Billy before you get on the track!!!
This is great guys, so many of you now tried and enjoying track- got to say really impressed with all of your great attitudes and the way you ride, wish some of the others that come along would listen and learn as well as youse!!!
so i know who to steer clear of then? 
Sadly yes
hahahaha, but yeh, if i cant get out before hand i wont enter, weeknights are just soo hard to make these days, last thing i feel like doing is going out and destroying myself even more, haha, which is why iv been hitting up murrarrie alot more. we’ll just see 
i was on 84" at the come and try day, felt like i could easily go up a bit, but i had ridden 109k that morning so i was pretty much rooted, more a story of not having the legs, once i have licence, i’ll be on it, and on 84"… feel like we should all have an L plate on
With a group of c grades I felt like I could have kept up at 84 but been able to control my speed and sprint alot easier with 84.
But I’ll give 86 one more go.
just got my 3 event licence, see you tonight!!!
Great FOA showing tonight! Had a good time as always.
Yea what he said…
Join a club- get real licences- try the track carnivals- ask anything you want, there are never any stupid questions.
yep dudes amazing, wish i was one of those 12yo kids spinning like mad on a first lap breakaway trying to show up the stupid fat bearded mid 20yo noob guy… ha if only, so glad i finally got onto this properly, club & licence is next, need more info on these carnivals, i’ll get some next week hopefully, so rad, just buzzing with thoughts about tactics and bikes and getting bike fit right and wow, super awesome.
the list of stuff to buy just got longer, way longer.
edit: must get gear kit, felt VERY out of it… maybe i’ll hold out for the full skinsuit, and yeah gloves too eh!
