For those that haven't tried, Birmingham is a much easier track to skate than Tatem Park. The banking is less steep and the bends are tighter so it's easier to skate the bends and doesn't work your back so much.
Spaces in my car if anyone wants to come out to Southall for a 9am pick up.
Might be nice to have a show of veterans, particularly in the Ladies to come away with a trophy. |

Ok ok I take the hint. I'll think about it. But if I'm still feeling like I did at Tatem on Sun then I won't bother, it's an awful long way to go for a training sess

Looks like I have to make my own way then
So can anyone who is thinking about this let me know so I can decide whether its viable to be getting a car for the day and driving up, or whether I go cap in hand to Rick and get my trekking boots out to Southall  |
