Summary: Richard takes Lisa for a flying lesson
Richard called for Lisa at the appointed time, a fabric broom case in each hand, and a canvas duffel over his shoulder with two sets of riding leathers and helmets for them both. It was a quick Apparition to the track arrival point, where Richard began pulling riding outfits out of his big Bluebottle-logo-marked bag.
He pointed Lisa toward the locker rooms. "A quick change for both of us," he told Lisa, "then we'll take some slow spins around the track so you can get the feel for the course. I've got those riding leathers spelled so they'll give you an exact fit, and yes, they are supposed to be tight. Last thing you want is leather flapping in the wind at a hundred miles an hour."
Richard gave the reluctant Lisa a slight push toward the women's locker room and headed for the men's.
