CRIT CLINIC

Following our fixed gear crit clinics in recent years and at this years Bike Motion fair we’re organizing another crit clinic in Zwanenburg (in between Amsterdam and Haarlem). We especially invite kids to join this clinic. For now it’s BYOB (bring your own bike), we are looking for opportunities to have some bikes available for kids.

Find out all info below!

WHAT WILL HAPPEN THERE?
Yvo Kinkel, a very experienced Dutch fixed gear rider and multiple Red Hook Crit finalist will guide you in your steps to become a better fixed crit racer. After his introduction, he will split the group in two groups. Participants will get to practice some essential techniques like braking, speed control, cornering, riding in a group and awareness when riding in a peloton. Both groups will be accompanied by another member of Team F.A.S.T, who will show their skills on the track and provide (technical and tactical) tips and tricks along the way. After the clinic Yvo will take his time to give you some personal feedback, so you are well prepared for the upcoming races.

After the clinic everyone is welcome to join and/or watch the races starting at 2.30 PM!

COSTS: 6 €

FOR WHO?
– Strongly recommended (if not mandatory) for those riders (male or female) who are new to our series and/or who have little experience in riding fixed gear or other cycling races
– Riders who already have some experience with fixed gear criterium racing and want to improve their skills
