COVID-19

To help with a safe return to racing, we are implementing the following procedures to help with social distancing requirements;

• Pre-entry: - To minimise the need for cash, please enter thru EntryBoss. We'll leave the event open to just prior the event.
  
• Check-In: - Please check in via the QR code provided or manually via pen and paper.
• Masks:- Please wear a mask if you cannot maintain 1.5m distance from others
• Symptoms and Exposure:- If you are experiencing flu-like symptoms or have been to a tier-1 exposure site, please do not attend.
• Sanitiser - Santiser will be made available. Please be careful not to touch surfaces unnecessarily

About

To start Tuesday nights back up again safely and ensure our event is as inclusive as possible, we will begin outdoors at the Harrison st velodrome; the home of Brunswick cycling club.

As this is likely our first time racing again after many months of restrictions, please ride safely and give more distance between wheels than you have in the past.

We now have the presence of level 1 coaches Ben and Nic Abels, who will assist riders in improving their skills during and after each race.

David Morgan will be officiating the night both encouraging you to enjoy the racing while keeping safe.

Format

We will now include some longer races to ensure every rider gets as much time on the boards as possible and can build their fitness on the track.

Racing will usually be split into three sections:

• A long endurance race of 50-100 laps (e.g. points, timed criterium, madison)

• A shorter race of 4-30 laps that tests riders' skill sets and focuses on upcoming track events (e.g. handicaps, team sprints/pursuits, longest lap, Italian pursuits)

• A moderate length endurance race of 30-60 laps (e.g. scratch, extended elimination, team elimination, madison, tempo)

Grading

Tuesday nights are inclusive. We aim to give all riders who can ride the boards safely a chance to race.

This means grading will be dependent on ability level rather than age and you may be racing with someone much older or younger than you.

We will begin with grading A through to D grade depending on numbers and we will make appropriate race formatting arrangements as required.
