    i'm really keen to start riding down on the track sundays and mondays. who should i speak to?
  1.  
    RPM, JC or one of the other trackies here will be able to advise. I'm also a TV & planning to do the same (Monday probably), so hopefully see you there.

    Info here: http://www.hernehillvelodrome.com/

    Need to do an induction first on Saturday, 12pm, then novice training follows at 12.45. Monday evening Race training starts in April, Sunday mornings are 'Advanced' track training sessions, and I seem to remember RPM (Captain Rob) saying something about Womens track sessions on Sundays too.

    There are Sunday women's sessions. Speak to RPM and you may be able to do your induction then rather with the unwashed on Saturdays.
  2.  
    Would it be possible, if there's a few of us novices, for RPM to do an induction specially for club members? I mean we'd pay him the going rate, naturally.

    Well I'd be happy to join on the 21st but I would be available for an induction on the 14th! So is anyone else around then? Would be great to get the ball rolling!

    14th track is busy with go-race :/
    there's only 1.5 hours free between sessions, or from 4 till dark which may be ok?
    up to you guys.

    Hi Pinky, Looking forward to seeing you again down at the track. I'll be there for the session on 21st.. Might even have my new bike with me if I manage to fit the bits together. (Or more likely several bike parts, bleeding fingers and a frustrated/defeated look on my face). I am not quite a virgin - have had a couple of one night stands - but keen to give it more of a go.

    after 4pm.
    There currently doesn't appear to be enough of you to make it worthwhile
  9.  
    Perhaps try to combine it with Grupetto's proposed session. 2 agendas, but maybe workable…?

    Good idea.

    The slot is booked if required. It's £65 per hour so you need at least ten people I reckon.

    Don't currently have time to field questions, just need an idea of numbers by the end of the week.

    You can start a list if you want, I know Winston reckons that's the best way to do things.

    Guys I have canceled the booking. I suggest trying the public sessions as they are not yet as busy as later in the season.

    Happy to do a club session anytime, but you guys have to agree on a date and numbers then get in touch.
    • CommentAuthorSammy

    Ok then, whens best for everybody to do a club session, i can do any day apart from saturday daytime! so public sessions are a no go!

    I thought I heard somewhere that you can get an induction at the Monday night sessions. Is that right?

    I'm planning to come along most Monday nights to get myself in shape to do a little racing on the track this season.
  12.  
    kinda similar to sean's question, for the saturday induction do we need to arrive at 8.45am for the novice induction at 12?

    No.

    You got the 0845 bit from the faq which contains old info, hence the big red paragraph at the top which says:
