ACC Track Championships Saturday October 12

Are you thinking about starting racing? Ask about future events in here, find out what you can expect at them and who else is going so you can scrounge a lift off someone rather than riding the 30 miles to get there yourself!

Cheers Mark. I'll be there. Probably ride up straight from the club ride. Was good fun last year. Edit I forgot to check, as the hockey season starts for me, which clashes. Sorry to be a no show.

Hi Mark,

I'm up for this, inc induction...just wondered what the ACC track Champs involve (for the novice, but keen, racer)?

Cheers,

Sam

I was wondering about this too. I've never ridden on the track so would need to do the induction, would it be wise to then try and race the same day? If not I might just do the induction and then come and cheer the others on/help out.

Well last year Tom did the induction and then a full afternoon of races without any ill-effects. So long as you'd feel comfortable racing with no brakes then I don't see why not.

Likewise. Same 2 objectives as the Circuit Race I reckon Nick. Don't crash and try not to come last...

Yep, true enough. At least if we crash at Herne Hill it'll be their bikes we smash up!

Thanks to Mark for organising, PVT and a very small thanks to the Shadow.
I was there by accident but enjoyed my time on the track with the ACCers.

These events really need better support if the club is going to spend time, money and effort putting them on.

Sorry I missed it Steve, enjoy our sprint battles even if you keep pipping me. I was unable to make it this year.
