Practice Day a big success

Karen Wiggins had a great day at the races

Today was the first riding day for the Bontrager Summer Sprint Series, being a practice day for everyone to have a shakedown, get used to racing on the Blackburn track and generally have a hitout the week before round one.

Starting at 10am with a couple of flying 200's for everyone, we were very pleased to have a few juniors come along and ride, and some newcomers to track racing as well as Barry 'The Wizard' Woods coming along to share his experience and show everyone how to ride a great sprint on the Blackburn velodrome.

We trialled and practiced not only riding, but also video, this season we expect to have video footage of the racing and this was a chance to test our setup, practice taking video of races and so on. A selection of videos have been uploaded to youtube, and you can see some below.
