Not really. My 18 year old Raleigh frame and fixed wheel set up was a bit too new fangled for the VCC
(pre 1970 is what they want to see). The only race they thought suitable for me was a 2 and a half lap handicap - they put me right at the back! They gave some young-uns almost a whole lap head start, and that woman you see me passing had about half a lap on me, still, I came in 4th.
