I am putting it out to TS that this looks to be the decisive evening for the Velodrome in Victoria. I can't overstate how valuable this asset is to our cycling community and how integral track racing is to rider development. Note the meeting time below and walk, ride, or carpool out to show support. I will be there and plan to ride out and should be there between 7 - 7:30. See details below

Thursday May 19th 7:00 (Juan de Fuca recreation centre, golf club house, lower level) could really help. I plan to drive out. Anyone wanna ride? I have 6 seats.
This councilor thinks attendance will be key.

Arg. This might sound paranoid, but this sure looks like typical tactics of WSPRS. I can't go now. This should be an incentive for even more folks to go, so they don't get away with switching meeting times to avoid the supporters of the track.
I suppose I should be content. They didn't use to pass along meeting times at all.

Ryan you should just throw in a filibuster during the Q & A until around 7:00 when all the rest of the people were told to show up. I don't think I can make it out for 6 either

Good idea. I think I demonstrated that I can be a loudmouth last night at Speedway.

Yes.
Tripleshot cycling organizes the school cycling league and looks forward to bringing the whole group to the track for clinics and races.
Al;so, TS organizes intro to racing now on western speedway, but has to work around motor sports, and can't get all the dates it could use.
Plus any commitment we are prepared to make to support the costs WSPRS imposes. (Other exec members?)
