| Very tempting. Although I'm so unfit I reckon I'd last about 2 laps. However, all those years of my dad taking me to watch the Skol 6 at Wembley Arena definitely makes me want to try to emulate Patrick Sercu, Willy Deboscher et al. |

I don't see it sunbeam? |
On this page there is a small (one row) table with a summary of the track inclusing length, angle, surface. geometry, and "Cote d'Azur"
I've no idea what it means either |

| Either Sunday 5th or Sunday 19th November. Both are afternoon sessions with a qualified coach. I've put a voting thread here. The day will cost around £20 for at the track, and won't include food or transport. This ought to be paid up front, I will provide details shortly. |

| If you don't have your own clipless pedals, you can use trainers and their pedals with toe-straps I believe. |

I'm in as a spectator, I'd go with the 19th, otherwise it clashes with the New Forest skate.

| I might be spectating now. 5th is New Forest skate if I'm fit but I'm not sure my knee will be up for riding by then. |
