By the way, Nike is to stop making cycling shoes/clothes. No Lance, so sales. The factory in Kotor Varos, Bosnia & Herzegovina has been told it will not be needing any swooshes soon.
Hey Sekt, don't let Deathhare wind you up. Have you raced on the Launceston velodrome? I rode there twice, my favourite track. By the way, that picture of the guy with two heads in your avatar, your neighbour?

I don't actually have a working track bike yet, so nope I haven't raced it. Probably not very likely that I will either to be honest (I'm not a racer...yet). I never even realised the Silverdome was a velodrome. I've never been inside and I was under the impression it was just a big arena/stadium type thing. I'm really keen to get up there and have a look when the carnivals start up again though.
Y'know that's the first time anyone's ever pointed out (and I've never noticed) that my avatar looks slightly two-headed. Haha.

Silverdome a brilliant track. Really fast. Only problem is they used local pine, so when you crash it splinters - one guy got an 8 inch splinter in his back...

Okay, so it's the big picture thing.
For the Nike **** I love - shame on me.
For the Nike **** I abhor - shame on thee.
I just hope to ride my bike a lot throughout the big picture.
Oh yeah, in my big picture...we all can afford a bike.

maybe Nike would give all of you a 1/4 acre plot in North Dakota or Idaho so you can build a mock up of your "stolen culture" and peacefully live out the rest of your fixed gear days.

I'd bet against my own track team, get kicked out of the sport, die unfulfilled, just to ride on a cornfield velodrome.
