WEDNESDAY TRACK LEAGUE

Results

The BIG news is that the track league is now sponsored by Fred Williams Cycles.  Fred’s have had a long association with the Wheelers, including supporting leading riders such as Andy Tennant and putting up some impressive prizes for the Fred Williams Scramble.

With Fred’s support the track league now has over £500 in the prize pot. This will be spread across all the categories. Down load the registration form and put the 7th May in your diary. Go to www.wolverhamptonwheelers.co.uk

 This year’s competition will be red hot! Will it be another year in which the young sprockets show the way or will the old cranks experience gain the upper hand!

If training sessions show anything it’s that the result is wide open.  Many new faces have been turning to track bikes on Monday and Wednesday evenings to join the old hands.

There is racing for seniors, juniors, vets and women.

We haven’t forgotten the youngsters. Youth A, B and C can race on track bikes, whilst there are also races for freewheelers. Freewheeler races should be over by 8.30

Twelve best rides will count towards riders overall position.

Race Entry

Seniors/vets/women £6 per session plus one off registration fee of £5

Juniors    £5 plus one off registration fee of £5

Youth riding up with seniors (at organisers discretion) £3 plus one off registration fee of £1

Freewheelers £1 plus one off registration fee of £1

Friday Track Training 6:30 - Aimed more at the younger rider using road bikes overseen by  club coaches.   This session is as much about learning the skills and fun of riding the track as well as gaining fitness and speed.

Visits to Other Tracks – The Wheelers regularly hire the indoor velodrome at Manchester for club sessions, coaching and derny (motorcycle pacing) training. These sessions are always well supported and are extremely exhilarating - "One hell of a buzz" as they say!
