2024 Wed Night Training at the Strap

Saskatoon, SK, Canada

DESCRIPTION

Join us at Blackstrap Provincial Park for 1, 2, or ALL of the Wed Night Training Races.  As per other years, we will be putting in a bypass option to help make the course more accessible for younger, injured, and newer riders.   This is a shorter course version to help riders get some training efforts in a race-like setting.  The course is marked but is not marshalled, so riders need to ride within their limits and watch for oncoming traffic.

You must be a 2024 registered Sask Cycling member to attend this series.

Bundle price is $40.00 (individual races are $10 each) - buy 4, get the 5th free!

*if you have 4 or more in your family racing, please email sck477@sasktel.net for a Family Discount Code
