If your young rider also enjoys a run then they might be interested in the monthly duathlons (run-bike-run) at Woking Sportsbox. One of the Flyers attended and really enjoyed it.

The next one is on Thurs 25th September https://www.britishtriathlon.org/events/swim-bike-run-local-woking_16250

Racing for all ages and Belgian Fries. Two good reasons to sneak off early on a Thursday!

This Thursday will have slightly different courses, still all on the flat, entirely in view of the spectators for the U6/U8/U10 racers, a few more slopes for U12/U14 and beginners and longer laps on the full course.

More good news is that Michael and his Belgian Fries wagon will be joining us for refreshments. If you haven’t experienced Belgian Fries, ketchup and mayo are traditional but we like the Hannibal sauce for extra zing 😋

Sign on and course practice for the younger riders from 4.45, there will be a medal and prize for them.

Book in advance https://www.britishcycling.org.uk/events/details/317881/Sprockets-Summer-CX-2025-Race-2 or enter on the day.

See you on Thursday!

On Sunday we opened the season for the Flyers and their families with a 5 miles and-a-bit-more ride starting and finishing at the Basingstoke Canal Centre in Mytchett.

The weather was kind to us and after a pitstop at Frimley Lodge, people still wanted more, so we added a little more riding around the local woods, including some of the easier trails. We also found out that bottom of puddles is not always as firm as Coach Graham seems to think it is!

Thanks to everyone who came along. We're looking forward to doing more of these rides over the warmer months.

We've just posted our dates for 2025 on our website: https://www.fccc.org.uk/kids/

We're having a couple of family rides on 16th March (~5 miles) and another date TBC (~10 miles). These are guided social rides for kids and their adults, mostly off-road, with coaches and helpers.

Coaching sessions will be back on Sunday mornings, with the first session on 27th April. In these sessions the aim is to have fun and improve bike handling skills and confidence in a safe off-road environment.
