when at sprint i could do 11 second laps, over 30mph , to give you an idea the track is about three foot wider than a tennes court "inside edge"

where is the fun in indoor track cycling?
I always thought the idea of cycling is to go somewhere & admire the view on the way.

Seriously though, it looks a tough sport, are you any good at it?

That bike looks pretty pared back to the bare essentials, what does it weigh?
