The crew over at Midweek Cycling Association have finally received word from the City that their permit is in its final stages! They are planning to have their first crit on May 11 (weather permitting), with the B race starting at 7pm. Registration is through Karelo (visit the above link to find your way there). After registered, you can pick up your numbers at Bow Cycle on May 5 between 6:30 and 8:00pm.
For those of you new to crit racing or racing in general, racing in these crits is a great way to gain pack racing experience, and not to mention fitness, really quick. Last year was my first year racing a bike and these really helped me gain confidence...just be smart, hold your line through corners, know where everyone is around you, and don't use your brakes unnecessarily. These can be tough to learn, but you should be able to catch on quickly.
I'm not a crit expert by any means, but feel free to ask me any questions on here or if you see me at the course.
