Just five days to go now before the bikes are back on track at Armadale and everything is going well after an excellent work session on Friday.

Track staff and potential new track staff are reminded that it is the intention to allocate and confirm duties at the practice on Friday. All track staff should be present in the George Hunter Memorial Lounge at 6.15pm for a staff meeting.

Friday saw the meticulous placing of the airfence back in position. If this task is not carried out precisely then the panels can end up blocking entrances to the track. Floodlights and the referee's control panel were all tested and found to be in working order.

A big turnout of riders is expected with a number of junior riders also joining the Border Roofing Monarchs on track. Stadium gates will open at 6.45pm for the 7 o'clock start.
