Coaching Session 10:00 - 11:30 Saturday 6th December

This week's session for will start at 10:00 on Saturday the 6th December. The theme for this session is descending and this will bring together many of the skills that have been revised up till now in this back to basics series. As with our last session, I am expecting to be assisted by guest coaches Carol and Jamie Cooper from Extreme Valley Riders as part of there preparation for Day 3 of their British Cycling coaching course.

Please see the Winter Activities Plan post in this blog for the latest version of our club activities plan for Winter 2008 (http://rootrats.blogspot.com/2008/12/winter-activities-plan.html ). This is a JPEG file so should be viewed at 100% to be legible. As well as giving you the dates and times of club sessions, our committee meetings and a Family Night that we are planning for February, there are the dates of a number of bike races. The races are being organised to encourage youngsters into the competitive side of cycling and will be similar to the very successful event that we arranged when the Tour of Britain came to Drumlanrig earlier this year. The first of these races is on the 20th December and this will take the place of the club session that was planned for that day. Please take a look at the Stepping Stanes web-site under Christmas Cracker for more details and event entry forms (http://www.steppingstanes.co.uk/).
