I just found this forum especially the fixed gear forum where I posted a pic of my Colnago track bike. I'd like to say hi.

I'm in my late 50s and have ridden and raced road, mountain bike and track since 1962 back in my native UK. Just recently I became a beginner/recreation session leader at our new local indoor velodrome - one of the nicest in the world - the Forest City Velodrome in London Ontario Canada just 30 minutes down the road from me. As a track racer in my teens I just had to get involved with this new velodrome. It's an awesome 138 meter, 50 degree banked wonder. Come on up for a ride!

Thats it. As soon as I get back to the motherland I'm taking a trip to London. I'm going to La Cipale on monday but its outdoors and 500 meters long. This one looks way more fun!

Wow, that photo looks great! I talked to the guys at the Cavern and they said that spectators number in the thousands, which is amazing. I am going to check it out one day soon. Thanks for the info.
