Pippa Leith is organising some women's Friday night crit races at the Velopark, for ALL levels (although you will need a racing licence).
Short Friday night crits @7:30pm
18th August
25th August
15th September
22nd September
29th September (TBC)
Track to ourselves (gents feel free to watch and support :)) Friends and family are all welcome. Creating a relaxed, social environment is the main driving force behind this idea. Think of it as a Girls' Night Out with a bike race!
They'll be points & prizes for those that want to contest the titles
Less experienced riders will be able to ride at their own pace, gaining confidence and improving fitness without pressure or intimidation. These races are suitable for new riders and we’ll actively encourage them to take part.
Also if anyone would like to help or volunteer:
Most importantly, we need volunteers from all clubs and teams (male and female!) to help out with marshalling, sign-on, line judging/timing (training will be given) and First Aid. Helpers will all be given free membership for our Winter season road series and/or track track league.
I can't make the first two dates unfortunately - hope to join for the September dates.
Thanks for sharing,
Alice

Formatting Help
Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.
Tips:
Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----
To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word
To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word
Embed images by entering:  That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.
* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks
1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot
> Quote text by starting lines with >

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:
```

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
