Cycling Southland’s annual Corporate Pursuit track event begins tomorrow (Sunday) at SIT Zerofees Velodrome with the first of two race days.

Another good night of racing was had by all on Tuesday. With the Madison racing series over, we were able to squeeze in four races for each Division in our one hour slot, which meant short breaks between races and the spontaneous combustion of a few riders!

The Tour of France is over for another year and so top of everyone’s minds (perhaps more on a local level than international) will be the Corporate Pursuit event to be held on the Velodrome in August. Training is well underway for teams and the very popular Roller Racing at the Lone star has been completed and has added what I think is another great dimension to the event.
