Track is Back in Oct!

Evening sessions at Derby Velodrome have restarted after an 18 month wait.  In the New Year (2022), we hope to arrange them on a monthly basis.  They provide an opportunity for club members to try out the track and, guided by expert coaches, progress to qualification for racing. Other sessions allow  more experienced riders to hone their skills through race-based exercises.
