...racing at Crystal Palace tonight?

It'll be my first time (racing there not racing) and I was wondering where I need to go to sign on etc.?

Thanks.

    I'm not racing, but if no-one on here replys you could try the dulwich paragon forum as there will be lots of them doing it.

    I'll be racing there. Ride into the park though the main gates and go along past the car park and you'll see marshals standing by a gate. Go through, avoiding the juniors hurtling round the hairpin, and you'll find the sign on. Try and get there in good time as the races have become suddenly very popular and we had ninety 3/4s + 30 E 1/2s the last time!

    Next week I hope I'll make it. [:)]

    Made a schoolboy error in doing two laps to warm up before the race instead of one so when I came round to the start everyone was lined up and ready to go. So I was at the back immediately. Which I knew meant I'd get shelled out early on and I was right. Managed two and a half laps in the group then got tailed off but kept going in a group of about five of us all the way until we were pulled out with 3 laps to go.

    It's a tough circuit but not as tricky as I'd been led to believe. I'll definitely be back for more.
