SE Track Clinic Review
Last Saturday I got to host a Track Endurance Clinic at the Superdrome in Frisco, TX. Thanks to the Management Staff of the local track (Paula Felix) we had a good turnout with 16 people attending the “left-turn-only” skills clinic. Whereas all riders have to take a certification class to be able to ride the track, not many of them get to do specific track training or learn tactics for endurance events. That’s where Source Endurance stepped in and we spent 4 hours covering various topics including the Scratch, Points Race, Miss’ Out, and Madison. Many participants were curious what tactics would “go” and not “go” in each event and what gear they should be riding when riding counter-clockwise only. Mat Stephens, the 2004 Madison National Champion, was there, too in order to give some insight on “Do’s” and “Dont’s” on the track.
