Redditch BMX Track - Latest!

Work has started!! Club Chairman, Benn Thombs reports that work has started on the new BMX facilities in Redditch. The track layout was agreed with contractors Bike Track last week and looks to be really exciting, (and challenging). We'll keep you posted and try, (if the contratctors will let us), to get some progress photos. As Benn says, 'Roll on the Spring!!'

On another subject, Benn and myself went to Swadlincote, Derbyshire at the weekend. We attended a, two day, British Cycling 'Go Ride' course. It was a really intense learning experience, but it was alot of fun; so were the people we met on the course. Once we have passed the course we will be able to offer introductory cycling lessons to young people, and those people who are inexperienced on a bike. In future, we will be able to offer BMX specific coaching to people, just need to get the track finished first;-)
