Track afternoon

 The Peter Snell pavilion at the Cook's Gardens velodrome..moved on two trailers to this site when the athletics stadium was modernized and the old cycle track there ripped up..and the new one built of wood not concrete..in 1994...a copy of the track built at Meadowbank, Edinburgh in the 1970s.
Why Cooks Gardens?... because in the mid 1800s the garrison cooks grew the veges there!



Pirate presented his local main rival (two week his senior!) with new racing kit as a thankyou for all he does for us and other local cyclists.  Yes, I did the session as well..but no-one caught me on camera!

    A bit hot for that I would have thought.

    We have shade between efforts on the boards. Now schools are back we'll be having sessions at earlier and later times
