Took a hammering today which was partly self inflicted but good fun nevertheless. Warm up was pretty brutal, we must have done close to 32 laps today at a fast pace only 3 left at the end I got dropped just towards the end. 34.7 for 500m which was OK. 64 laps was pretty fast again this week 21.33 pretty smooth all the way round, whittling the group down to 4 by the last 10/15 laps. I got dropped with 2 laps to go (partly my own fault as I was taking 3 laps on my turn) the two faster riders on the Friday just have a ridiculous amount of power and fair play they put in 5 laps plus on their turns. I felt like I'd rather get dropped today and help put a good time in than finish off with the bunch. To coin a phrase "win or bin" I'm hoping by doing this I'll get a bit stronger too! After the Betty I intend to start going to the Thursday sessions which tend to be a bit faster, which is hard to imagine at the moment!
