New for November:

November 11^th is “Bring a Friend Day”. On Saturday November 11^th, we want to share the Thanksgiving Holiday Cheer with you and your friends at the LA track. Anyone who brings a new guest (ladies only, please!) to the track for the Certification Class will receive a special Holiday Gift.

For those ladies who returning to the LA Track and have already been certified, the November Session will be a structured workout designed to help us to build on what we have already learned. We will plan to be on the bikes and ready to ride at 12:00 sharp. We will begin with a 12-15 minute group warm up before moving into the structured workout portion of the session. Throughout the session, we will focus on specific skills such as pace line and pedaling techniques as we learn how to move safely around the track.

For those ladies who are new to the LA Track, the session will begin with the Certification Class located on the upper level of the building. This class is taught by Roger Young and is designed to teach new track riders the basic skills needed to get you started on the track. This class will last approximately one hour after which you will join the rest of the ladies who are already on the track.

The Staff at LA is passionate about sharing track cycling with each of you!

New for December

December 9^th is “Dream Team Day”. As with all the Ladies Only Sessions, everyone is always invited and encouraged to attend whether or not you belong to a cycling club or team. However on December 9^th we want to celebrate our local bike clubs by encouraging them to bring as many teammates (ladies only, please!) as possible to the Ladies Only track session. The club with the most Ladies in attendance in will win a Santa Sized Grand Prize. For those ladies who are currently ‘unattached’ you will be an honorary member for the day of “Team Misfits”. What’s the matter with misfits? That’s where we fit in! You will all want to be sure to attend this session…the winning team prize will be delicious!

For those ladies who are already certified to ride the LA Track, the January Session will be a structured workout designed to allow us to build on what we have already learned. We will be on the bikes and ready to ride at 12:00 sharp. We will begin with a group warm up before moving into the workout portion of this session. This session will be a bit different from the previous sessions. In January we will begin to work on some of the specific skills that will be very helpful to you as the road and track racing seasons begin. We will discuss the various types of track racing events that are available to women in both the Elite and Master’s racing scene. We will also discuss how the sport of track cycling is changing and what you should expect to see in the near future both locally and globally.
