LSST CLUB RACE 20 APRIL 2008 |
|
|
|
|
Wednesday, 23-Apr-2008
|
On April 20th LondonSkaters Speed Team organised a track race at Tatem Park. The first UK race of the outdoor season, it saw a large number of competitors and spectators, and our club was well-represented on the podium with a win in Category 1 for new member Kimmo Ilmavirta and places for Gavin Pollock (3rd, Cat 1), Peter Carr (3rd, Cat 2) and Edmar Gwiazda (3rd, Cat 3/4 Devils). Despite some uncertainty in the weather forecast the track stayed dry all day and the sun even came out during the second half.
The organisers and club committee would like to thank everyone who offered help and advice both on the day and in the runup to the event. Thanks also to the FISS officials and judges present on the day.
Club race events are free for spectators and cost around a tenner to participate in if you're a FISS member. There are also races open to all skaters called "RAT" races (which are cheaper but shorter) which are open to anyone with skates and a helmet. Check the events list for future races, and see the event discussion on the club forum.
