In an attempt to train riders for the 2004 Derny paced Championships in July, Reading Track Cycling League is putting on special training sessions over 30 kms at Palmer Park Velodrome on the following Tuesdays - 13th April, 18th May and June 15th, commencing at 8.15 p.m. at a cost of £5 per rider per session.
All the Derny motors currently at Reading will be used so that each rider will have his own pacer. It is hoped to match riders with pacers in order that a good rapport can be established between them.
Riders prepared to commit themselves to these sessions should contact Dick Poole on 01189 9867144 or by email. A maximum of 16 riders can be accommodated.
Road bike sessions will continue on Tuesdays up to and including the 6th April, and on Thursdays until 25th March. Starting Thursday 1st April all Thursday sessions will be for track bikes only, and will include several sessions using Derny pacers. All sessions start at 8.15 p.m.
The track is available throughout the summer for unsupervised training on Tuesday evenings from 8.15 p.m. however riders should check with the Stadium on 01189 015080 to confirm availability.
