if only i'd read this earlier. i went yesterday. evening. jumped on the back of a paragon rider (who kept trying to shake me, mwhahahaha) and a bunch of dynamos (who dropped me after 3/4s of a lap) for a bit. i did 3 and a half laps in the end. quite nice really. it was pretty quiet in the evening i started to wonder whether the park had actually closed.

[quote="Sean Hogan - 何祥"] I might wear my new Giro top, which one though is a secret ;-)

It's more white kit isn't it :P .

As you're well aware I'm not a park-er but that sounds like a good time, well done mate. I think you should have a go at a 25 rather than the odd 10, I've always thought that it would suit you better with your style of riding/type of rider. There's a SCCU 25 at the beginning of September that would be a good one to have a go at. If you need a lift I'm sure I can help out.

I had a crack at this on Saturday.

Went anti-clockwise from a standing start by the rugby pitches. managed 59:38

Blimey it was hot , I had to lie down on the grass for about half an hour afterwards to cool off :lol: :lol: :lol:

Good effort Sean, early morning will always guarantee a head wind in my 3 year experience. :twisted: Try going for it late in the evening I thinks that when most of the best times are set.
