Meyrick Jones Racing: Track Clinic

"wise guys" quote:

It is not the critic who counts, not the man who points out how the strong man stumbled, or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again, who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, and spends himself in a worthy cause; who at best, knows the triumph of high achievement; and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.

- Theodore Roosevelt, speech titled "Citizen in a Republic" delivered at the Sorbonne, Paris, April 23, 1910

Everything you need is already inside.

- Bill Bowerman, co-founder of Nike, legendary coach, and father of the running movement.

Track Clinic

I have organized a Learn to Ride Clinic at the Burnaby Velodrome. This is all part of my master plan to have other people to ride with at the 'drome.

If you are interested in joining there are a handful of spots left.... Here are the details:

When: Wednesday March 4th, 8:30pm - 10:00pm
Where: Burnaby Velodrome (MAP)
What: Learn to Ride 1 Certification course and open track time after until facility closes.
Who: 7 or 8 riders I have roped in (so far) as well as myself. The course is taught by certified instructors.
Why: Because the track is A LOT of fun and a great workout. It's also a great way to get time on the bike in the winter.
How: To register you need to click HERE and fill out the form, name, address, yada, yada, yada.... It costs $30 and includes: Instruction, insurance, track bike rental, and track time.

So there you have it.... come one, come all - it is a lot of fun and it would be cool to see some MJR readers there.

You never know.... you might love it and before long you'll look like this:
