BRAC Junior Track Cycling Camp May 3-4, 2014 USOC Memorial Park Velodrome Colorado Springs, CO USAC Permit - Pending We are pleased to announce the first official 2014 BRAC Junior Track Cycling Camp. The camp takes place over the weekend of May 3-4. We will learn to ride on the USOC Memorial Park Velodrome, which is located in Colorado Springs. The riders will also get to spend Saturday night at the Olympic Training Center. Three meals from the training center are included along with snacks and lunch at the velodrome on Sunday. During camp riders will learn how to ride on the track. This includes learning the standard means of communication, common riding practices, and predictable riding. All which ensure safety while racing and training on the track. We will also go over the track bicycle in general, cover how to change gears, and give advice on which gears to ride for certain events and training. Finally we will learn about the different track races and get to practice racing! It should be noted that most track racing for juniors is scheduled for the new Boulder Valley Velodrome (BVV) in Erie. In order to race at the BVV riders must have completed a track cycling certification course. This camp is a wonderful opportunity to satisfy the certification process and get a head start on the track cycling season! Who Can Attend: Male and Female riders with a current racing age between 11-18. Riders must hold a 2014 USA Cycling Road/Track racing license. Dates/Times: Saturday, May 3rd 10:00am* – Sunday, May 4th 2:00pm *We understand many Jr. riders will be participating in the Café Velo Tri-Lakes Time Trial. Just let us know if you are planning on doing both!
