Wednesday Night Track Class

Cass, Bill

I know........... you don't own a track bike...... your scared of the

turns..... you feel like you need to hold onto a brake lever.... and your

not quite sure about that fixed gear thing. We can help. Come on out on

Wednesday night and for $5.00 we will teach you how to fly around Alpenrose

Velodrome's notoriously steep banked turns. If you don't already own a track

bike, we can rent you a bike for the low, low price or $5.00 . If you live

in Oregon, you need to come out to play on the track at least once. You

won't regret it.



If you have conquered the turns but want to work on some of your skills

before you jump into the Thursday night races we can help there too. We have

a schedule of drills that will teach you everything you need to know to line

up on the rail Thursday night. We might even show you were the finish line

is.
