Hi All,

A great night to ride the track.

All the newbies were back to try the track again, great to see.

Caitlin, Tess and Alison looked after Angelica, Charlotte and Joseph on the warmup track. Venturing out onto the main track during breaks in the main session.
Max helped out with Joseph, Harry and Bat as they got used to starting and stopping on the fence and riding a paceline. Still need more practice.

For the main session, a quick 10 lap Paceline. then the group split into pairs to practice a passing drill. Learning to back out from the lead rider and then sling shot around and past. This took a couple of goes before everyone got the hang of it.

Next and Italian, with Oscar, Christian, Olive and Mia vs Alex, Georgia, Will and Genevieve. Both teams started strongly, Oscar pulled out after half a lap so Christian pulled his team around for 1.5 laps. Genevieve crossed the line first, with Mia not far behind. Great effort by all as each team rode well together.

The early session finished with a short warm down

The later session started with a 15 Lap Paceline, then, like the early session, the group spilt into pairs for practice passing.

Next, Bunch whistle sprints. And we finished the session with a shoe race, Max first closely followed by Adrien and the Tess.

Thanks to Bernie, Jen, Caitlin, Tess, Alison, Max and Matt for your help

‘til next Wednesday
Colin
