Does anyone know when the track has open sessions? Looking at the schedule (http://www.obra.org/track/schedule/2005/index.html), it looks pretty booked for the week after the season starts. I'm not a club rider, but I'd like to get some time on the track to ride intervals and check splits.
Maybe if other people were interested, we could organize an informal training session during the week.

I've been to Alpenrose a few times already this spring. From what I've read on their website, as long as there are no planned events you can pretty much ride it any time, provided that the track is dry. I would definately be interested in an informal training session, as I am a beginner, but it would be nice if there was at least one person out there who knew something about track racing/training. I plan to participate in the Wednesday evening classes. I believe they start in late April.
