Dear all,

 

We have provisionally booked a track session at Newport Velodrome for Sunday
14 March 2010, 9:00 am to 12:00 noon (providing British Cycling don’t bounce
our booking as they did last time!) with Sports Coaching.

To secure an exclusive session for the club we need to confirm a minimum of
15 people, maximum 25.

 

The trip will consist of a 3-hour session, including coaching and bike hire.
Sports Coaching organise the session to allow everyone the opportunity to
enjoy themselves regardless of experience. So novice or not, there will be
something for everyone. The coaching finishes with a fun session such as a
sprint or points race. As the last session went so well Sports Coaching tell
me that for some, the coaching may be little more advanced than last time
(providing the beginning of the session goes OK and we all behave
ourselves!).

 

Details are as follows:

 

Venue:

Wales National Velodrome

Newport International Sport Village
Velodrome Way
Newport
South Wales 
NP19 4RB

 

Time and Date:

Sunday 14 March 2010 between 9:00 & 12:00am.

 

Bikes, Shoes, Helmet and Mitts/Gloves and the like:

The cost includes hire of a track bike (If you have your own dedicated track
bike you can use it subject to Sports Coaching inspecting and approving it
on the day).

 

You will need either Look Delta cleats for your shoes, or alternatively you
can wear trainers with clips/straps. You will not be allowed to change the
pedals on the hire bikes, so please don't ask.

 

You must wear a helmet, so bring one with you.

 

You must wear cycling mitts or gloves, so bring some with you.

 

You will spend some time off the bike, so bring a top layer etc you can
easily take on and off to keep warm and a bit of food and drink to keep you
fuelled.

 

Cost:

£30 per person (just to let you know, the cost of the track hire has gone up
but Sports Coaching are not passing that on to us so the price remains the
same as before).

 

Judging by the smiles on every bodies faces the last time this proved a very
popular trip.  As its first come first served please email me back as soon
as you can, with a brief note as to your track experience i.e. total novice,
been a couple of times over the last year, experienced but not accredited,
accredited etc.

 

We need receipt of monies by Sunday 01 November 2009 as payment is due in
advance of our session.

 

Please make cheques payable to Velo Club Walcot and send to:

Alternatively you can hand them to me at this weekend’s club hill climb or

Any questions please feel free to drop me an email.

 

I’ll keep you all up to date.

 

Regards,
