After the success and fun of last year’s Junior ‘Intro to Cyclocross' session at Earlham Park, we are running it again, this time also for our adult members.
This is a one off session to give you an introduction and an idea of the skills you need to race Cyclocross.
There is an Eastern Cross Cyclocross race at Old Buckenham Country Park on 23rd November. If you would like to enter the race you can do so via the British Cycling website.
The session will include mounts /dismounts, hills/slopes, cornering, obstacles, sprint starts and riding and running over obstacles whilst carrying bikes.
Even bunny hopping if you wish to! All of these skills will help with general bike handling skills and confidence, and will be a lot of fun too!!
Meeting point will be near the Earlham park car park at 11.50am
University Drive, near the Enterprise Centre. (Opposite the SportsPark car park)
What three words: ///zooms.cope.trio
Session Requirements:
• Challenging bike session for those who have confidence and skills on their bikes already and are looking for the next challenge. This is not a beginners bike skills session.
• Bikes in good working order for the grassy, lumpy field. Mountain, CX or road bikes with knobbly /off road tyres.
• Helmets
• Water bottles
• Seasonal clothing, long trousers are fine but must not be loose around the ankles
• Trainers or cleated bike shoes (if experienced with wearing them)
• Membership cards with emergency contact details and medical information.
• Any medications
Risks:
In all sports there are risks, we have Risk Assessment and Emergency Action Plan for the session which has been approved by Norwich City Council and is available for you to see, the documents will be at the session. Running the session in a public park does mean some of our biggest risks are the public and their loose dogs. We will do everything we can to mitigate these risks, but please be aware we can’t prevent all accidents. We will inform participants of these risks and you need to be able to ride safely and listen to instructions with awareness of others in the session and other park users.
