No idea how fast we were going , the speed counter is blanked out and your following an instructor around the track ( 1 instructor per 2 riders ) , sometimes your overtaking slower groups and in turn being overtaken by faster groups , it would have been better to do the tricks first to give you more confidence on track , i'm gonna save up and go back next year .
