Go to Herne Hill one Saturday morning for their induction sessino Mo - Details [url=http://www.vcl.org.uk/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=43&Itemid=58]here[/url]. Very well run by VCL and you can hire one of their track bikes. Fixed wheel, no brakes, great fun.
If you get the chance go to Manchester for a meeting. The atmosphere and noise as they thunder around the boards is amazing, and you get no idea how steep the banking is from the TV. It is much steeper than at Herne hill where it is quite shallow eing such a large track.
