See the Hillingdon thread for how easy it is - 27.8 mph average - 90 rider field and won by the National Circuit race champion with a world's silver medalist in 3rd.

And that just proves the point that it is. If an old f@rt who only likes racing indoors with no wind can get a placing it must be a simple training ride.

Err... is Welwyn indoors?
I don't know what all the fuss about. The best riders are the best riders, the hardest races are the hardest races. Makes no odds where they come from or where they are.
Just avit.

I've raced down south (ERRL), midlands various events and a few up North (Preston area) and never managed to get any points.
So its equally hard for me to get points anywhere, so I think it doesn't make much difference where you race, it hard everywhere
