CLASS DESCRIPTIONS

 

BEGINNER CLASS

This class is for students new to track cycling and for those that may have some experience at the velodrome but don’t ride multiple laps on the “blue line”. The emphasis is on having fun and learning the basic skills for getting on track. The desire to become a bike racer is not necessary - only the desire to experience riding on the track. Participants receive an award certificate upon completion.
