Texas Cup Keirin at Alkek

One of the most fun track events ever is coming up on July 2nd – the Keirin!! This is a TXBRA event and there is a code.

For those who have not raced a keirin, this is where a motorcycle leads out a group of racers (6-8) for 4 laps, increasing speed the entire time. At the 4th lap, the driver pulls off and leaves the racers at anywhere form 28 – 32 miles an hour, then the last two laps are a sprint to the finish. So, its a total of 6 laps. There will be several heats and there are lots of different categories to choose from. Go here to register:https://www.usacycling.org/register/2016-2051

If you have any questions, as usual, you can contact any of your trackie teammates. Hope to see you out there!!
