So the Good Friday track meeting was rained off half-way through. After setting up my stall and having everything ready I was really gutted. We got to see Chris Newton take gold on the points race, but aside from that it wasn't the big day that we had all hoped for! Riders came from Italy and France, my brother trained through the Winter and there was the largest ever number of women racers...who were all left disappointed.
It is such a shame that the weather in England is so unpredictable, its holds us back on many things. The Brits are always talking about the weather, but it is something that makes or breaks a day and there is no way of knowing which way it it going to go.
Maybe we should all just take up mountain biking.
However, we did get t-shirts signed by the 4 biggest track stars at the event, which are on sale from the website.
