On a wet and blustry\nSaturday morning , after a long winter of hibernation, saw the re-emergence of\nover twenty dedicated track worshippers, some familiar faces and some new\nfaces, to the hallowed tarmac of Sundrive Velodrome. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thanks to the\ndedication of Hugh Byrne and John Coates all rental bikes and equipment were in\ntip-top shape, ready for another busy season ahead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There was a great\natmosphere, despite the inclement weather conditions, and everyone was raring\nto see what lead coaches, Orla and Eddie had in store for the morning\u2019s\nsession. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The session began\nwith some warmup laps to get us familiar with riding in pairs and also to shock\nour dormant track legs back into life. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Next on the menu was\na series of slow starts leading into 100 and 200 metres sprints in groups of\nthree and four. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Following on from\nthis shock to the nervous system, Orla got us into 2 groups to work on a skills\ndrill, to practice our spatial awareness by weaving in and out of gaps. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The final two tasks\nwere pursuit efforts for 4 laps and a mock race on the whistle. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thanks to Orla and\nEddie for their time and to everyone who braved the intermittent light showers\nof rain and the strong winds. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

See you all next Saturday. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
