Vikings Cycling Club / Canberra Cycling Club
CHRISTMAS TRACK CARNIVAL
Come to the Canberra Track Christmas Carnival
The Christmas handicap trophy is up for grabs, plus a sausage sizzle and prizes for the juniors.
Oh, and Santa might even show up!!!
Many of our riders use TRACK RACING 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.
With a wide range of events track racing can suit sprinters and endurance riders alike.
This racing is a co-operative effort across all ACT and district clubs.
All riders get a minimum of three races including a scratch and a mix of handicap, points, elimination, pursuit or sprints.
We cannot ride in the the rain. A post will be made on our Facebook page if training will be cancelled due to bad weather.
Gear restrictions apply to all junior cyclists in events conducted under Cycling Australia/AusCycling regulations on the road and track.
The restrictions referred to is the distance one revolution of the crank arm will propel the bicycle, this is known as the ‘roll out’.
