Intro to Cycle Cross

If you like the idea of taking your road bike, or a slight version of it, off the pavement and onto a designated park area, cycle-cross may be for you. Also called CX, cyclocross and is a form of bicycle racing known worldwide. Cyclo-cross has parallels with mountain bike racing, cross-country cycling, and road racing. The Cycle Cross track at the home of Bellurgan Wheelers is the place to go.

You will be coached at the track with some expert coaches in cycle cross on the skills needed to cycle the track and you will get the opportunity to cycle track to help perfect these skills.

You MUST have a working bike & road worthy helmet you will not be able to participate otherwise. All participants must have parental consent and must have their transport to and from the venue.
