NEW COMPETITION FOR NEXT SEASON'S SERIES Toadd a new dimension to the club's 2011 race series, we may incorporate a bike handling element to our popular Thursday time rials. We are considering asking riders to demonstrate alternative positions to the typical aero pose, both on two and on one wheel. Time bonuses may be awarded for innovativeness and level of skill.Go here for a good example of what we may be looking for>
GREAT CYCLO-CROSS VIDEO.
Fifteen minutes of classic cyclo-cross from Europe. Your editor raced in these conditions almost every week through the winter and also rode to and from the events! Go here for a sample of how an organiser makes great use of the available space. (Just like the Cross on the Rock events!)
FULL AERIAL COVERAGE FOR MIDWEEK RACES ? Have a look at this technology. Perhaps we could get some sponsorship dollars to get one of these drones. It would also be a great way to spot rule infractions, like drafting in the time trials and jersey pulling and the like in our criteriums.
