A friend has recommend crits so that is something I will definitely look into.

I have looked into coaching as it is something I feel I would benefit from and also something I am used to from ballet. Black Line Coaching looks to be very popular and I see a lot of the Lee Valley riders in their skin suits. They have no prices on their website so I imagine it is expensive but I am sure you get what you pay for.
We’ve got the Black Line Open at the Derby Velodrome this bank holiday Monday, if you want to watch some sprinting and ask a few questions then come on up. I think we’ve got around 60 men and 40 women entered.
