Hands on Bars

Published: 31 March 2010

Many riders will have been watching the recent Senior World Track Championships as run in Copenhagen. Regretfully there were a number of riders who were frequently seen competing in bunch races using positions where their hands were not in contact with the handlebars.

All riders are reminded that this practice can be deemed unsafe and any rider seen competing in such a manner in any track event in the UK may be subject to some form of disciplinary action under the powers of the Chief Commissaire
