Congratulations Dave! It'll be good to see more of you during the race season!

Actually, the house will be way too big for just the two of us, so I expect to see officials and racers staying with us frequently. Mrs D is already working on a fee schedule. :lol:

Personally, I’m hoping for a national team that’s willing to leave some silks behind. I think Canadians & Dutch ride on Dugast. They would be nice. :thumb:

I'm glad you clarified that about the tires. Before finishing that paragraph I thought you were using "silks" as slang for chamois.:innocent:

Chamois or chemise? I can’t figure out if a silk would be a viable material for a chamois or not. :foo:

Hope it is successful.

The rescue attempt was successful thanks to hard work by a group of concerned people. A contract has been signed and the rebirth of the velodrome is in progress. :) :winter:
