Great feedback folks! I do have one thing going for me already Carleton, I have already been certified to ride on the Giordana Velodrome in Rock Hill, SC. I did that over a year ago, but haven't been back to ride since. Just been one thing after another this past year, not least of all the birth of my second child, not to mention I work 6 days a week. But I'm tired of putting it off, and ready to jump into it.
I have been back a few time to see their Friday night races, and went down all 3 nights last month for the mass start national championship events, which were awesome!
