DCLane

Found in the Yorkshire hills ...
The outdoor track next to the football club ?

That's the one. They're doing adult training prior to a race league starting next month and he wants some bunch time on his race bike.

We'll be back for the first Tameside league event in the 2/3/4 race on June 1st and a few others. He's points chasing for his Cat 2 licence due to the late start.

It's a good circuit.

It can be a bit bleak, but is generally safe although flat. Wakefield's a good one with a hill, as is Nottingham. Leeds is draggy, York windy, Middlesbrough has tree droppings, Stourport's bumpy, Shrewsbury odd but fun, Sheffield and Steven Burke are pan-flat and Elland attracts glass-smashers from nearby. At least Tameside doesn't have that issue.

They're building a new circuit in Bradford to replace Richard Dunn which has parallels, a change-over (think Scalextric) and cobbles like the Doncaster circuit.

Do you get the impression I've visited a few over the past 7 years' racing :whistle:

And that's just some of the circuits, don't get me started on the velodromes.

Wasn't the Richard Dunno Centre put up for sale at Elland Road?
