WHAT TO EXPECT

Many of our riders use track training to enhance performance, skills and tactics as well as to keep fit, however new riders to track are very welcome with more experienced riders providing guidance on getting used to track.

This season we have added a "Race Skills" sessions this is open to any age group that wants to compete in track races and carnivals. These sessions will focus on a variety of skills and tactics based on growth areas identified either by the rider or by coaches. Be mindful that these sessions are in the middle of the day, therefore will be technical in nature with long breaks

With a wide range of events track racing can suit sprinters and endurance riders alike.

We cannot ride in the the rain. A post will be made on our Facebook/Twitter page if training will be cancelled due to bad weather.
