Tripleshot Cycling

Looking forward to another great clinic starting up on April 10th!

The clinic is a series of skills and training sessions to get you on your bike with other women to learn and practice drills, group riding (drafting/ pacelines), introduce you to racing in a beginner friendly format, and highlight the diversity of cycling as well as what the local Victoria community has to offer. Ultimately we want you to feel more confident and comfortable on your bike!

Nice work Jen!

Thanks Geoff, many people have put in their time & effort to get this project rolling again! I am thankful to be working with a very talented, diverse and dedicated team of coaches this spring! Some improvements have been made by incorporating new ideas from leaders and participant feedback in hopes of offering a better experience. There's definitely been quite a bit of growth in a short time frame and hoping to continue to build capacity with both women riders and coaching opportunities. This is a local grassroots community initiative that I hope all the club members can be proud of!

Poster's done - please share! Let us know if you want a pdf!

Hi Jen...Tripleshot will be proud of you and the other coaches...or should I say we are proud.

Please bring about 12 posters on Friday if possible and Mark Ford and I will distribute to any bike shops you havn't been to, and to Lululemon. We will also give some to Liz at MEC if she needs them.

Good Work, cheers, Paul
