Badger Prairie Park, Verona, to host training sessions
Spin Daily staff
Following a winter of uncertainty, there will be Madison area cyclocross practices in 2013 — and they start in ernest.
Badger Prairie Park, Verona, will host the first practice of the season at 5:30 p.m., Wednesday, Aug. 28, according to an email from Joe Maloney, University of Wisconsin cycling team member.
The team will be conducting the weekly practice sessions, which will meet at the shelter near the soccer fields at the park, he said.
This week, the practice will focus on general skills, rather than a simulated race course. Skills will include, practicing race starts, running over barriers, in addition to general on-bike skills.
Donations will be accepted to help cover the cost of putting on the practices, Maloney said, but for now there is no cost to participate.
Badger Prairie was the site of the USA Cycling cyclocross national championships in 2011 and 2012.
