Bicycle Little League
Our very successful After School Program (Age 8 to 16)
For 2010 we'll be running the program every Monday and Thursday evening from 6pm till 7:30pm beginning on Monday the 14th of March and running through till the end of October
The East Point Velodrome Association is proud to bring back for another year our Bicycle Little League. This exciting program will offer all children a unique opportunity to enjoy the sport of cycling in a controlled, structured environment. The Bicycle Little League utilizes specially designed bikes to give children ages 8-16 the ride of a lifetime. The Bicycle Little League is coached by experienced bicycle riders and racers. Children will learn how to safely operate their bikes on the banked track and will have the opportunity to compete under the close supervision of their coaches nightly and under the lights during the Pro Race Series events. Don't miss the fun, come down for the next class.
For current schedule please check our calendar.
Class is not held if it is raining. See what the weather looks like on the Weather page.
