San Jose Bicycle Club presents its fourth annual Winter Series Clinic on Saturday, October 22 from 9 am to 3 pm in North San Jose.
The clinic will focus on beginning racer skills, from pinning on a race number to high speed cornering to pack riding skills, all with a focus on safety. Past clinics have been a rousing success, with most of the clinic graduates participating in the Winter Series. Many continued on to race USA Cycling sanctioned events.
The Winter Series is a handicapped series of time trials, criteriums and road rides held most Sunday mornings starting October 23 and continuing until mid-January. The events are a low-key way to discover the fast paced world of competitive cycling. The SJBC membership is known for its support and mentoring of new riders.
This clinic does not offer NCNCA upgrade points. Please refer to the NCNCA website for clinics that do.
The cost of $140 includes instruction from five of the club's race team members, a one year membership to San Jose Bicycle Club ($50 value), a season pass to all 11 SJBC Winter Series events (a $80 value) and lunch. Student to instructor ratio is 6:1, with a 30 registrant limit.
Juniors (18 and under) will be accepted for $10 (cost of lunch) and space is limited to six juniors.
Reservations will be accepted on a first come, first served basis. We filled within a few weeks last year...sorry, no refunds as we have a limited amount of space.
