Thursday nights, 5:30pm.
Get on a chartered bus at UofM, east bank.
35W north, on the shoulder, passing all the gridlock.
No stress, no concentration, no delay.
Just relax and talk to other cyclists or listen to your iPod.
At the track by 6:15pm.
Your bike is already at the track, all you need to do is register and race.
Take the bus back to the UofM after the racing.
One flat fee for the whole season, or individual rides at a set price.
If you are already racing at the track, would you take this bus?
If you are not racing at the track, would this service convince you to start?
Discuss it.

Skibby sez (a wee tear falls…) that it’s the driest summer in 21 years and the track has been rained out 5 times. That must be some kind of record number of rain outs in a season. The season isn’t even over yet so there could be even more rain outs.
Why so many rain outs this year?
It’s because (dis) spencer has such a crap ass attitude.

You have to register (free to take the poll) and it’s 34 questions, but it’s interesting to see the result.
