ROLLERSKI CLUB

Our rollerski club in Hyde Park and Richmond Park springs back into life in September, and we'll have 3 instructors for each Hyde Park session from now onwards.

If you want regular training, and a mix of being pushed to work hard, and being coached to improve technique, this is well worth getting involved with.

We're meeting up for drinks at the Mitre Pub on Thursday 23rd September, 7PM - all welcome to come and see what it's all about.

ROLLERSKI RACES

The club will be focusing on rollerski race preparation over the next few weeks. There is a great choice of rollerski races coming up, including -

SAT 26th September - LONDON SPRINTS - LRNSC
SUN 10th October - LONDON 4-HOUR RACE - LRNSC
SUN 24th October - WESSEX SPRINTS - Wessex Biathlon & Nordic Ski Club

The London Sprints is great fun, and will sharpen you up. The 4-hour race is an annual epic, ideal for getting distance in. The Wessex Sprints attracts a huge turnout and has excellent prizes and a really smooth course. We're putting in a big team for Wessex - last year we were challenged to bring 50 skiers to this race, and that's what we'd like to do.

The team will be made up mainly of our Hyde Park and Richmond Park regulars, but anyone can join us, and we'd be very glad if you did. Enter here.
