[quote]The Smithfield Nocturne is set to be the premier event in advance of the Tour de France coming to London. Held around the historic Smithfield Market on Saturday 23rd June it will be the official event for the Corporation of London’s promotion of the TDF. Keeping to the ethos of Rapha and Condor, the companies behind the event, the Nocturne will be a celebration of cycling in all its forms. With historic bikes, ProTour cyclists, an elite criterium and a quintessentially British feel it will be an amazing night for the 5000 people expected to attend.

An absolute must I'd say Sean!
Sylv says he's in Wales but hopefully the others can do it.
I'd have liked to have my arse kicked in front of a bigger audience as well but I'll stick with the France daytrip.
Come on though guys, don't let London Dynamo blanket the field.

[Sylv]

I'd really love to see this and take part too.

Anyone want a Dragon entry?

Well unfortunately ill have just arrived in La Riviere Enverse, so i can't...

But good luck to anyone who gives it a go... if you think Palace is hard, try a crit like that! OH MY WORD, the phrase 'different league' doesn't even come close!

I'm in whoopeee

Earlier today dropped my entry straight to the organisers office in London.

Rode a couple of test laps around the market on my way to work, It's tight and technical with some tight corners

[Jon (Man in green)]

I've entered, so has Tim.

I was originally entered for the E12, but I switched to the 2/3/4 at 17.15 as soon as I found out about that one! More time for drinking and less chance of getting dropped.
