South Coast Track Cycling Information
At South Coast Cycling summer track events on Monday and Wednesdays (training) and Fridays (racing) our aim is to provide a fun, safe and enjoyable environment where young riders can learn how to ride on a velodrome. In order to do this it is important that some basic rules are followed.

Riding on the Track

• It is crucial that the gate is kept shut at all times.
• When you leave or enter the track please ensure that you close it behind you.
• In terms of crossing the track, you must always look to see if any riders are coming, just like crossing a road. Parents need to watch and assist their children when they are crossing the track.
• In regards to actual riding, the most important thing is of course to keep pedaling and looking
  straight ahead. To ride straight you must look straight.
• The best place to ride is in the sprinters lane. This is the shortest and fastest way around the track.
• To overtake you must always pass on the right hand side, ensuring you leave plenty of room.

If ever you have any questions, feel free to ask.
Above all, South Coast Track Cycling at Edwardstown is all about having FUN!!!!!
