March Review

Most of this month is aimed at continued indoor training and building strenght and endurance.
A break to the routine was taken one night when all went to the Brenton Skating Rink for a fun slippery night.
The month culminates with an evening of orientation and equipment fitting.
One hour is spent in class going over video training with regular material reviews to make sure the riders are paying attention. The topics covered include
Bike component identification
Proper bike fit
Proper helmet fit
Protective eyewear
Shifting and braking
Riding safety
Traffic considerations
Bike maintenance

The next hour is spent fitting bikes and helmets, tour of the facilities and shifting instruction.

The bikes are kept on the first floor of the Des Moines Register building in downtown Des Moines.

Every ride starts and ends there.

The young riders are itching to get out on the bikes.

That comes next month.
