 Feasting on humble pie. Member 51, 1692 posts SQ 227.5, BP 185, DL 272.5685.0 kgs @ 90.4kgs UnEq | Does anyone fancy clubbing together for a group booking at the Veladrome Manchester? So far there's me, Litte_a and another person in. Dates tbc when I have more numbers. It's one things more that go the cheaper it'll be. Looking at around £15 for an hour if 10 of us go getting cheaper by the person. Fantastic opportunity to cycle on the track Chris Hoy trains on and it's mega fun. No bull s**tters please. Pm or leave a message on this thread if your in  | ||

I'm reading his autobiography at the moment. It's not a bad read, mainly because it focusses on the competing and the training and not on personal/extraneous stuff. Quite interesting to read about the ups and downs of his career - it wasn't just gold all the way. | ||

CB1000R Yeah the car park has a section for motorbikes that is monitored by security cameras so it'll be safe. There is a huge array of sports you can do at the vedodrome | ||

According to his book, Hoy's PB full squat is 227.5kg at around 93kg. So if squatting prowess is anything to go by.... | ||

My mate Dane is thin as a lat and I out squat him by a huge amount but over a lap sprint he completely owns me. | ||
