Dan, my mate Andy had a 22 last time and wants something slightly smaller this time... so watever the next size down is, please (a 20?). No details from the other chap yet as he's away this week.

He also has a couple of mates who are interested... is there room or are we at breaking point?

Has everyone sent cheques/cash to reserve their place? (I'm aware I haven't, but you know I'll be there, and I have the cash/cheques for the 2 I'm bringing currently)

I've already asked Dan for the fastest one - you know, just like at the go-karts, there was always a couple of karts that were quicker.

I ride a 20" and I'm 5'3 so maybe a 21?

Sorry Ive not been around

I have forgotten who I am getting the train with someone said they was getting the train from Leeds?

 

[Rohloff_Brompton_Rider]

what shoes do i need? i've got spd's and sturdy trail shoes. if these are not correct can i hire the correct ones?
cheers

 

[fossyant]

Look DELTA compatible shoes ONLY - the older Looks....

It's the system I use anyway.........

I can bring a pair of Sidi Genius 2's - 42's....bit tight for me now (Italian fitting) - if you are a 40/41 you might be OK, and an old pair of Diadora 42's if needed.... - I now use 43 Spesh road shoes....

You can also hire shoes at the drome.... happy to bring my two spare pairs..... just in case........
