Starts in London tomorrow at Crystal palace. Last chance to catch some racing action this year after Winston's keirin event sadly got cancelled.

I went.
it was excellent, very well organised (despite our press passes not getting us into the hospitality area!)

didn't see anyone off this forum, bloody poor show!

a real shame it wasn't as widely advertised as it could have been, given the turn out at the TDF this year

Great course and a fantastic result. Judging by the number of polka dot hats they were trying to hand out larger crowds were expected.

i was there, though with out my fixed (waiting for new wheels, only one week to go!) it was good and i took a load of photos, but it defiantly lacked in the freebes department, where where all the free racing hats? no one wants a silly polka dot sun hat

Yes, I did start a couple of days early, that might have been it, I am surprised that more of the racers don't try this, it certainly gave me an edge.
