10/17 Practice

10/16/2017

0 Comments

 
Another great fall weather week! Come and join us for cyclocross practice tomorrow! We'll be shooting for Chestnut sledding hill in Willow (map:  http://tinyurl.com/WillowChestnut). If there happens to be a conflict, we'll go back to Washago. I'll send out a notice via Remind if we have to change.
​
Practice is from 6:00 to 7:30. Newcomers are always welcome. For any new people, we can go over basic skills before riding the course. Otherwise, we'll just do as many laps as your legs or lungs allow. See you then!

We're still getting some great weather for this time of year. Come and join us for cyclocross practice tomorrow!  We've had some bad luck trying to go to Chestnut, but I'm not giving up! Our luck has to break soon. So our plan is to start at  Chestnut sledding hill in Willow (map:  http://tinyurl.com/WillowChestnut). If there happens to be a conflict, we'll go back to Washago. I'll send out a notice via Remind if we have to change.

Practice is from 6:00 to 7:30. Newcomers are always welcome. For any new people, we can go over basic skills before riding the course. Otherwise, we'll just do as many laps as your legs or lungs allow. See you then!

Cyclocross practice is on for tomorrow!  We will be at Chestnut sledding hill in Willow (map:  http://tinyurl.com/WillowChestnut) from 6:00 to 7:30. Newcomers are always welcome. For any new people, we can go over basic skills before riding the course. Otherwise, we'll just do as many laps as your legs or lungs allow. 

Don't forget to sign-up for our Remind group. Remind is a group messaging app that we use for ride announcements. This is especially important for CX practice as we will occasionally have to change locations if there is an event where we had planned practice for the day. So make sure to sign-up! Go to https://www.remind.com/join/dcccx or text @dcccx to the number 81010.

We're back for another season of CX practice with DCC! Practices resume this Tuesday, September 12th at Willow Metropark. I have plans to try out some new locations this season, but we'll start off at our normal location from last year: at the Chestnut sledding hill in Willow (map:  http://tinyurl.com/WillowChestnut).  

Practice starts at 6. For any new people, we can go over basic skills before riding the course. Then we ride! Do as many laps as your legs or lungs allow.

Tuesday CX Practice--Last one of the season!
We're going to do something a little different for our final CX practice this week: Instead of doing laps on a dedicated CX course, we're going to tour the off-road sections of Willow MetroPark. There are plenty of hidden trails, two tracks, XC skiing trails, a disc golf course, and of course the sledding hills. We'll keep the group together (so no one gets lost) as we hit all the lesser known parts of Willow. CX bike is still appropriate, but mountain or fat tire bikes will also be perfect. We will meet at the usual time and place: 6:00 at the Chestnut Sledding Hill (http://tinyurl.com/WillowChestnut).

Mad Anthony CX is this Sunday. Are you ready? Come out and practice with us on Tuesday to make sure you're in top form for the Detroit area's premier cyclocross event. With the end of daylight savings time, it's going to be dark, but we're not letting that slow us down. Just make sure to bring lights. We'll be at the usual spot: the Chestnut picnic area at Willow Metropark at 6:00.  See you there!

CX Practice Tonight! It's definitely get dark earlier and earlier. Sunset is at 6:30 but we'll still have light until 7. Even so, you may want to bring lights if you want to keep practicing into the darkness :) We will be at Chestnut again this week (http://tinyurl.com/WillowChestnut) with a 6:00 start. New comers are always welcome! See our website for more information.

CX Practice Tonight! We're getting some incredibly warm weather for this time of year, so there's no excuse not to come out. We may get a little rain, but it will probably feel nice considering it's so warm. We will be at Chestnut again this week (http://tinyurl.com/WillowChestnut) with a 6:00 start. New comers are always welcome! ​
