We've had a tally of more than 40 of these sessions over past years and they have featured throughout 2015, normally a fortnight after the sessions at Cyclopark with Power Pack.

 

These monthly local training sessions have been based on Leigh so that we can make use of Gadbrook Road which is quiet, straight and well-surfaced.

 

The alternative (used occasionally) is the 3-mile loop based on Horne golf club. It is also pan-flat.

Warm-up: beforehand with a parent would be good.
 
You need to be with a parent.... except for the likes of Matthew Ferguson, Nick Gill and people/riders we know 
 
We typically run with several groups riding at different speeds... so the more parents the better.
We stop after one-two laps for recovery and re-grouping.
You will need to read and agree to follow our guidelines on these training sessions.... they will be printed out and available for reading through when you sign-on.
They basically ask you to confirm that:
1
you have done road rides before with your child and
2
they are competent at riding on the road.
