Rider skills training - May 14

Senecio [Daniel D]

I have been most impressed by British Cycling's Regional School of Racing (RSR) sessions run for invited youth riders. These teach (amongst other things) bunch riding skills, cornering in a group, how to follow wheels and sprinting. They also give a taste of what it is to race. Vital skills for racing but also for effective club runs. I have looked on and thought ‘I wish these training sessions were available to all adults and youth riders’.

Well now this training is available to us all at CCA !!

Mark Wyer has organized a training session for Saturday May 14th at the legendary Redbridge Cycle Centre (Hog Hill). I encourage all riders, young and old, to attend this session to sharpen up your riding skills.

Safer. Faster.

More details are on a ‘sticky’ post on the front page of the CCA Forum or contact Mark, markwyer at ntlworld.com

Hi all,

Pro rider Billy-Joe Whenman booked as expert rider. His palmares includes wins at the GP of London and Tour of the Dengie Marshes.

However I need more bookings for this to go ahead. If I don't have at least 10 booked in by Friday then I will have to cancel as it won't be worth the effort.

To help plan the session let me know your racing/cycling experience, usual club run group and what you want out of the session.

Mark.

There was some strong interest shown in this at the AGM last night. Mark Wyer needs to know who wants to come as a matter of urgency. Please let him know if you want to attend this session, otherwise he will have to cancel it (extended deadline being Monday 10:00)

This is a very, very good opportunity to learn and improve vital skills for what we do. I am astonished it is not oversubscribed!
