Herne Hill Velodrome
Come and ride the track as a family, spend some quality time together and maybe get a little competitive! Can the adults keep up with the kids?
This session is for kids aged 8 and over and parents to come and ride the track together. As well as the essential track skills, we will include lots of games and races to make it a fun session for all. This session is open to both new and experienced riders: you don’t need to have ridden the track before.
Each family must have 1 parent/carer and at least 1 child between 8-18. You could have the whole family, or multiple kids per adult.
Lycra is not required, although we recommend that you don't wear anything too baggy - layers are recommended, as well as a warm jacket for after. Remember to bring water and a snack.
Check the weather! We run sessions throughout the winter, so please dress warmly and have waterproofs on hand. In the rare instance that we need to cancel due to snow/ice/high wind, we will endeavour to inform participants via email / social media at least 2hrs before the session.
Gloves must be worn
Hire bikes are available and included in the cost.
Please arrive 15 minutes before the session start time to get a bike and get comfortable to ensure that the session can start promptly
