Are you wondering what this Cyclocross stuff is all about? We have the perfect clinic
for you!!
Please join Kari and Shey Lindner and Trish Albert for a beginnners’ cyclocross clinic and learn to dismount, hurdle barriers, carry
your bike and remount. (Yes! You can do all of this!) We will discuss cyclocross bike setup and rules for the races. You may
practice and compete on a cyclocross bike or a mtb bike, as long as there are no
bar ends. This is all set in an co-ed environment that is relaxed and
full of encouragement. This is also a great clinic for second season cyclocrossers to 'brush
up' on 'merging with the bike'. We will have several knowledgeable
racers to work with you on your skills and Trish Albert will give an
in depth review of cross frames and set-up. So, bring your questions.
.
THERE WILL BE A LARGE FLEET OF DEMO BIKES FOR THE CYCLOCROSS SERIES,
THIS YEAR. IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN TRYING A DEMO BIKE DURING
THE CLINIC PLEASE EMAIL ME TO SEE IF WE RECEIVED THEM AND ANY ARE AVAILABLE.
Come join us and see what all the buzz is about! CYCLOCROSS RAWKS!!!!
(please bring mtb or cyclocross bike, helmet, plenty of water to stay hydrated
and a snack in case you get the munchies)
Tips: Remove bar ends before the clinic
Removing bottle cages before the clinics will make it easier to lift your bike. (we are always near water)
Pick your hardtail over your full suspension if you have a choice. (if you don’t ....who cares! We’ll have a blast anyway!)
Wear mtb shoes instead of road shoes and lycra instead of baggies if you have them. (so you don’t get caught on the seat)
(as tennis shoes worked just fine for a couple people last year, so
come as you are!)
There are several places to eat that
are close to Conte’s and the International Horse Park it right down
the road. One awesome burrito place is Mad Cactus on Salem Road!
(directions available at the clinic)
