The Midweek club's Monday Night Learn-to-Race and Tuesday Night Criterium will be starting up again on April 19th at 18:45h at the Tahoe Blvd & Buckhorn Gate 1km circuit.

 

Remember that parking is not allowed on RIM or TD's property or along the street surrounding the circuit. The best option is infront of one of the businesses along Eastgate Parkway.

Monday Night Learn-To-Race Series

These events are for riders with little or no race experience, including novices, those returning to racing after a break and slow old farts. Coaches and experienced riders will be on hand to conduct learn to race clinics, encouraging fun, confidence and skills training. Clinics cover (but are not limited to): cornering, sprinting, pack handling skills, echelons, race tactics, bumping wheels, energy conservation, etc. We have posted some Learn-To-Race related articles *HERE*

Although a little fitness will help, most nights will feature separate starts for riders of differing abilities and a separate field for women. Faster riders (all categories) should ride the Tuesday night critriums instead.

 

Tuesday Night Midweek Criterium Series

The scratch (main) group is for Senior 1/2, fast Juniors, top Women and rapid Masters. Others can place themselves in the handicap group if there is one that week. Slower riders should ride the Monday night Learn-To-Race events instead.

Several times each season there are Points races, as well as Jack Wierzbicki Prestige Series races.
