Reckon the bush Andrew mentioned is a good (if smelly) place to hide for a few laps

Kieran,
Technically, following the rules, YES, you should continue round the circuit. If the riders then pass you before you get back to the finish then you are 1 lap down.
However, in practice, Commissaires GENERALLY have a relaxed approach to the rule, provided your return, if against the flow of riding is NOT DANGEROUS.
BTW Sylv, a certain Mr C used to regularly inhabit that bush on a Tuesday night for a breather

1 lap down (so presumably 4 laps to go) and they shout last lap?!* wasn't sure so led up the drag and into the final straight to keep the tempo high as i didn't want us to get caught (i knew there was a small group behind, but not sure how far back) and there's the flag in the distance. 4 come around me before the line and the strongest guy in the race - an addiscombe boy - just finished behind me and was equally bemused to what happened to those 4 laps... mind you me legs were quietly happy they never happened!

The pressure is on for next week Jon.
(just remember, left turn = right pedal down, and it shouldn't be a problem
