They dont gear you very high do they? Last year i TTed on 48/13, about a 97" gear, going by yours you had a 84" on. Not bad for a start though.
Yeh, you do get a 'subtle' reminder about you being on fixed. I did it a few times when i frist started to ride fixed, had the back wheel come up in the air one time but held it. Once you get used to it you can ride them well. Its when you go back onto gears that you get a wierd feeling. Thats when you try to leg brake to find out it doesnt work, or you want to freewheel but your brain is telling you not to! :lol:
Theres a track near me, its got 4 courners though, no real banking. Been round it a few times on my own. Keep meaning to do the track league but id have to get a lift to it, which isnt the most easiest of things.

Get over to Manchester and give it a go. Highly recommended.
