After the summer of road cycling skill sessions on the track we are moving off-road to cyclocross skills. The sessions are open to riders of all ages and we'll have a couple of groups so we can have advanced riders honing their skills and novice riders learning some important basic skills ready for the upcoming Red Rose Olympic Cyclocross race at Hoghton Tower. This week we'll be looking at moving mounts and dismounts as well shouldering the bike.

For this week either a mountain bike or cyclocross bike will be fine.

We'll be having a few pre-season sessions and then we're hoping to have sessions on any Saturday when there is no race during the season.

Everton Park Summer Cross Report

Submitted by Mike on
Phoebe under 10 girls winner

Red Rose Olympic had a great day of racing at Everton Park. It was quite a different experience racing in the sun and heat after the rain, hail and snow of the last cyclo-cross winter season.

Red Rose had riders in every race. Pheobe won the U10 girls race and Dan was in the youth race and had a great race despite a mechanical on the start line which delayed him getting away.

There was a great atmosphere, with local police on bikes having a go round the course and representatives of the Friends of Everton Park there too.
