The Western Pennsylvania Wheelmen (WPW), the region’s longest running cycling club, will be holding the first of two time trials and time trials clinics at the Washington Blvd Cycling Oval, this Saturday.

The event is geared toward beginners, but experienced cyclists are welcome as well.  According to the organizer, “this will be a great opportunity to test your fitness, ride on the track…and learn a little about the culture of time trialing…You don’t need a time trial specific bike, clothing or helmet to participate and enjoy the experience.”

Experienced time trial racers, Stephanie Swan and Mark Bedel, will be present to explain the rules prior to starting.  You are encouraged to show up about an hour before the start time to sign in, ride the track and warm up. Each cyclist will be released at 30 second intervals promptly at 10:00 am with start positions based upon the order of sign in.
