There is a petition to the UCI that campaigns for the introduction of Women's track events such as:

Madison
Team Pursuit
Team Sprint

The petiton is on the www.velodrome.co.nr website
Please sign up so that we can get equal chances in such events.
This will be presented to the UCI when enough names are put to the petiton.
(Browse to www.velodrome.co.nr, register and login and then browse to track cycling - petiton women's track events)

This is gonna be big news, looks like we are gonna get some of the events trialed at either Rev11 or 12, brilliant!
Thanks to all who signed up, you see we can make a difference.
Perhaps if we get more the UCI will take notice

ATTENTION MODERATORS


Mods, can you verify for me/us that this is bona fide... velodrome has made no posts which contribute to the life of the forum...

I asssume this (velodrome.co.nr) is genuine as this topic has not been locked or deleted, however, no members respond to these two threads...

But I also have doubts when velodrome seemingly "self-bumps" its own topic/thread....

I am on a very slow connection (about 19.8kbps on a good day) and am unwilling to go to sites I don't know as each page slows down the surfing speed.

I would be interested in supporting this if I knew it was genuine.

Have any TE members signed it?

RoadRaven,

I've been to this site, and as near as I can tell, it's a mostly legitimate forum site linked to a velodrome in the U.K. (though I had a doubt or two when I saw a viewable thread about downloading songs....) I'm not willing to sign up to read the forum, so I can't tell for sure. (anyone actually sign up?)

The first time this person posted, I deleted the thread, as its purely self-promotional and the person isn't contributing to our forum. And you are correct, this person has done nothing put post to this thread occasionally to get the thread back up to the top and noticed.

So, note to velodrome.cr.nr... unless you prove to me that you are legit, by actively participating over here, Ill have no choice but to assume that you are doing nothing but attempting to drive traffic to your own site. That's just not OK around here. If's that's all you're here for, I'll delete this thread and any future posts.

But this is a friendly bunch here, so look around, stay awhile, contribute respectfully, and you'll be welcomed as a friend.

Ok, I made the great sacrafice and registered. Eh. Yeah, there's some cycling content - general stuff like Road, Track, Time Trials. A couple sections specifically for Newcastle Track Cycling Assoc. and Staffordshire University bike club. Another section called the Stands with random discussions - religion, downloads, etc.

Not so special, icky bbs software. I'd say velodrome is just trying to get people to his site. Oh - from what I can see 10 people have signed his "petition" (It's a bbs poll)
