Now, no safety wiring will be required in any group. It will be strongly suggested though.
Anyone with a track dedicated bike that does several days a year should safety wire their bike.

Hmm, I though I saw Linda post up a couple months ago saying there was a change for red about safety wiring. Oh well, good thing to do at any rate.

It's best to use a sharp bit with light even pressure. Let the bit do the work. Also use some sort of cutting oil. I use LPS lubricant. WD40 works well too.

I'll have to check out those bits. Whats the cutting oil/wd40 for? Less friction?
