WOW!!
Fantastic Neil.. I'm sure we can get a team of timers/observers together. The only velodrome BHPC have booked this year is Scunthorpe I think - maybe that would give an opportunity (either early in the day or after the normal BHPC races?) |

Reading is easily accessible and if not pre booked can be used for a few quid for a couple of hours. Had wasp round it a few times. Not too bumpy (been on worse) and good for testing.
Remember as a kid there being a test track at the ford research centre in Essex (dunton) that had banking a long straights. Was fun in transit van 😄 |

As well as going for the UK record, would an extra 400 metres earn warrant a BHPC HR record?.

What you mean you won't have to slice skin and bleed everywhere? Doesn't sound like you Neil, I thought you enjoyed the pain, suffering and picking the scabs later!
