Tripleshot Cycling

Hi,

My name is Derek, I'm an amateur racer from Northern California, where I race with Team Fremont. I'm visiting Victoria for the next couple days and was wondering if I would be able to join in your Tuesday/Wednesday team rides this week? I do crit training with my team once a week so am comfortable in fast paceline/group riding situations.

Thanks!
Derek

Hi Derek,

By all means. The Tuesday ride is a "speed" ride with laps of a golf course followed by some scenery and then some more laps around Beacon Hill. The A ride should keep you entertained. Meet at Pareito at 6am. There will be a reasonable turnout at this time of year. The A guys might have some ideas for other rides on Wednesday- see below..

Wednesday rides are a little more challenging- The hill ride is a little more sporadically attended. Either meet at Pareito or go straight to Cadboro Bay hill- there can be anywhere from 2 to 20 doing this ride, but its at your own pace.

Thursday ride is also not well publicized but is one of the best workouts of the week- Meet at UVIC circle at 6am for Team time trials- teams are made up of similar strengths of 4-6 on the day..3 15 minute efforts..So if you are still around on Thursday, join that one as well.
