I'm planning on being there.  The only "if" is if Scotty W wants to hit up Chesterfield regional for some national practice I said I would drive him up there.  Gotta look after my No.1 rider.

I doubt the venue will switch at this late stage (though to be honest, I'd rather race at Dagenham than most places).  More likely to just get cancelled altogether if the track is flooded (though they have a water pump so even if it floods they can drain it).

I reckon it will go ahead at Brixton/Brockwell unless it is seriously chucking it down on the day.

Weather looking pretty good - so recon it's a goer.

I fancy this but I have another big party planned Saturday so I am not 100% yet. 

I will have a word with Jim though as he is now in possession of an old school ride, it might be time for him to make a comeback!

Hi Guys, the track drains really well now. There have been quite big areas of standing water over the last few days but they can be swept away and the track becomes perfectly ridable  and that is without the pump coming out.

Good news Wojy.  It'll be good to have a decent BMX track in central(ish) London again.

Paul i normally run 40-18 on every track but have a 39
for the very short 1st straight tracks as i dont have
big tree trunk legs to push high gears.
