Go-Ride , Southampton – Tuesday, 05 Dec 2023

Event Summary

Event Overview

Calshot Tuesday Night Track Session return for winter 2022/2023, again with 8 sessions booked, 4 either side of Xmas & New Year

The session is open to Youth A/B to Adult, U23, senior Masters etc. 

 

Pre Xmas Dates 

7th November 

5th December 

Post Xmas Dates 

30th January 

20th February

 

Sessions will mainly focus on track racing skills, and group size is limited to ensure we have a single group + maybe the odd sprinter. So expect to get a lot of riding done during these two hour sessions. 

Rider should be competent track riders, and be comfortable riding in a bunch on the track.

Calshot, being a small track does require some specific skills, so if this is your first time riding Calshot, do expect your first session to be about orientating to the track
