Event Description

What an amazing experience! I was in my element zooming around the velodrome. You don’t have to worry about traffic, the elements, uneven surfaces, punctures, just other cyclists. The seats are hard to start with but ok once you get going. Bikes only weigh 6.8kg. Fixed wheel bikes with no gears or brakes, Concrete floor has under floor heating and massive lights in the ceiling help to keep the place warm so there is not so much drag in warm air, which means you can go faster. We were given instructions what to do then started off in the grey area and progressing to the Cote’d Azure (blue area) then some of us went to the black line area. Madison line I thoroughly recommend it. Once you are up to speed is almost effortless. No struggling up hills changing gears.
