Hetton Coaching Session - Saturday 16th August

Hi all you budding road warriors!  I'm leading a long session this Saturday covering Downhill Braking and Cornering and going downhill in general.  This is suitable to all who did my last session a fortnight ago. 

I will use the main climb up to the usual finish line - this is nice and open  and will give us the chance to create some difficulty.  See both session plans, which I've uploaded to the site and are attached here. 

I would like some help from one of our parents to marshal the start or turns, so I can observe technique. 

Alex and Steve Walton are rota'd to coach - if numbers are big enough, we may split the group and the sessions can be delivered to older and younger groups.  However, this certainly wasn't a problem a fortnight ago - except that we nearly had to fish Joe Curran out of the lake! (That was nearly a lot of paperwork folks). 

Due to a typing error last time, many turned up early and were entertained by Jamie - for which thanks. To be clear this time: start will be 9.30am and finish will be somewhere after 12noon.  I'd like a riding warm up and a bit of a game just to get everyone's attention. 

Think that's it - see next story for the riders who can ride the open road.  See you Saturday!

Tony Hodgson
