This post is to clarify the policy concerning the bikes I have available for use.

I only have so much room in my car for all of the stuff I need to bring up to the track. I have four places for bikes on my roof rack and can fit up to three more inside if needed. The problem is that I have no idea what is needed on a weekly basis and as far as I know none are needed for this week except for young Eva. I’ve been bringing as many bikes as I can to the track but few, if any are being used. Thus I will be bringing less bikes on Thursdays in the future.

If someone wants to use one of these track bikes I really need to know in advance. The deadline is when I pack which is sometime mid-day on Thursdays. All it takes is quoting any of my post with an idea of size needed or sending me a PM with this same information. You can even email or call me; my contact information is on the flyer. You can even use Twitter to contact me or find out what is on my mind. I use both this site and Twitter to get information out. The same goes for any other questions you may have.

Adult sizes are $10.00 rental for the evening. I currently have a 51, 52, 56, 56, 58 and my personal 60ish.
There is no charge for junior bikes to junior riders.
Bring your pedals, shoes, helmet and everything else for your person you need to ride.
The gearing or any other change to the bike is not allowed by the rider. If you need to make any changes ask me and I will make all reasonable accommodations.
Bikes are available on a first come – first served basis.

Yea, broadcasting works!

The 58 I have is reserved. There is still enough time to put in any requests for the other sizes and I can bring a total of 6 or 7, possibly more if I really try.

Note: the last two weeks in June I will not be at the track, meaning I will not be able to bring any of the bikes I have up there. We can still make arrangements for those riders that wish to use one on those days, it will just need to be well in advance. I will post a reminder about this closer to that date.

@swilles

Hopefully the three junior bikes are rented this week. Also the 51 and the 58??? is being asked for.

we'll see?

@swikles

Edit:     As of now I will be bringing all three of the junior bikes and three of the adult sizes that have been requested. I am not sure if I have room for any more. The sizes I have left over after all of the current requests are accounted for are the 52, and either one or both of the 56's I have. I am still on the hunt for a 53 and/or a 54 to fill in my fleet. Tyler, did you have one near that size?

And if you no longer go for a gap that exists, you're no longer a racing driver, because we are competing. We are competing to win, and the main motivation to all of us is to compete for victory; it's not to come 3rd, 4th, 5th or 6th." - Ayrton Senna

I am bringing up this old post because there is still interest in the use of the track bikes I have to offer. I have one verbal request for a large one but posting here is a better way to reserve a bike.
