Track Racing

Two of FFRP's juniors are beginning to race track and really enjoying it. Jeff Bahnson and Gunnar Bergey are making the weekly trips up to Trexlertown to compete in BRL an introduction to track racing. With nearly 3 weeks of two practices a week, the two are really starting to get a feel for the high speeds and lack of breaks. Here's what they have to say:

Gunnar-"I am really enjoying racing on the track. It it something different that is incredibly fun. I'm sure the speed and power you build from this will benefit all aspects of bike riding. It is really hard to spin that fast of a gear!!"

Jeff-"I am having so much fun at the Velodrom. I really like doing something different on teh bike that is unique. The lack of breaks is good for all kinds of bike racing because u get used to not being able to use them."

The two are enjoying it very much and will begin racing it in real races shortly. Possibly racing Nationals in June!!
