Friday Night Track League at Halesowen
Friday Night Track League kicks off at Halesowen on 1st May at 7:15.
Not long now to those warm summer evenings and some fantastic track racing at Manor Abbey Stadium, Halesowen.
Your chance to emulate our Team GB Olympic and World Championship stars. There is racing in Senior A, Senior B and Youth categories. Also races for Freewheelers in A (U12 and 2nd year U10) and B (u8 and 1st year U10) categories
Come and have a go - there will be some open training sessions in the weeks leading up to FNTL, so you can find your track legs.
Even if you don't fancy riding, come along with all your cycling and non-cycling friends to see some very entertaining live racing. It's ten times better than on the telly!
You can enjoy a glass of beer (there are some fine real ales) or tea, cake and refreshments from trackside and entry is free for spectators. What could be better in these difficult financial times?

Dave,
My family have just relocated back in Birmingham and my daughters (both 5 and 7) enjoyed taking part in the Scottish Provident summer cycling league that they have here in the Isle of Man.
I note that your email says that there is an U8 category, in the Isle of Man the kids races are doen with standard kids bikes, no super light frames or skinny wheels. Do the younger children ride proper racers or track bikes at Halesowen?
If it is a matter of just turning up and having a go I'm sure that they would love to.0 -
They'd be very welcome indeed as long as they can ride in a straight line and look over their shoulder.
A registration form is available at www.halesowencycling.net
Please note that Under 12s can ride freewheel bikes, but for safety reasons they need to be accredited before they race - pm me your number if you want to talk about it, or just bring them down next Sunday morning at 9:30.
Hope to see you there!0 -
Just a few days now until the launch of the 2009 Friday Night Track League at Halesowen on May 1st.
If you are intending to ride, it pays to register in advance. You’ll beat the queues on the night, as we will fast-track riders who have pre-registered. Visit www.halesowencycling.net for an online form. Fill it in, e-mail it back to us and you can pay the registration fee on Friday.
The weather forecast for Friday is looking good, and we have a great programme of racing planned for riders and spectators alike, with quality commentary. This year, we have a £1500 prize fund spread across many different awards and categories – so everyone is in with a chance!
The racing will be divided across the following ability-based categories:-
Senior A
Senior B
Youth
Freewheeler A
Freewheeler B
Entry is free for spectators, there is plenty of parking and the quality commentary keeps everyone informed and entertained.
This year we will have a barbecue as well as the usual trackside refreshments, and of course our clubhouse will be open with some excellent real ales and other beverages.
We are very easy to find on the A456 heading west from J3 of the M5.
