For those who arent aware, Broad Street are hosting a Cx clinic on Sunday (there is no race this week).
A great way to introduce yourself to this nutty version of cycling.

_______________________________
Broad Street Cycles is hosting one last CYCLOCROSS SKILLS CLINIC!
Join us this Sunday (Sept 23rd) at Mary’s Farm Sanctuary on Finlayson Arm, road for an afternoon of dialling in your cyclocross skill set.
We will be expanding on the techniques taught at our weeknight clinics, and delve into the minutiae of what makes this silly sport tick.
If you’ve never attended a CX skills clinic, this is a GREAT place to start. Bring, or borrow a bike and we will walk you through the steps on how to mount, dismount, carry & ride your cross bike.
Perhaps you’re an experienced ‘crosser, or at least a few races deep? We’ll be offering an advanced skills session on Sunday. Instruction will cover off-camber corners, line choice & race tactics, as well as allowing a chance to try your hand at hopping barriers, charging starts and figuring out the limits of traction.
The day will wrap up with a practice race (A & B groups!) letting you put that newfound CXpertise to work in a real setting.
