When? Tuesday 16 July 2024, 17:30-19:00.
Where? Ackers Adventure, Golden Hillock Road, Small Heath, Birmingham, B11 2PY. Head for 'Ackers Base Camp'.
Why? This is the same venue and format we'll be using for the Grass Track Championships on 20 July, so it will give riders a chance to preview the venue and hone their skills for the event.
What equipment do I need? An off-road bike - smooth road tyres won't grip; helmet; gloves; clothing that can keep you warm enough – but not so you get too hot putting an effort in; layers are good. See Bike, Helmet and Clothing Checklist (PDF).
What if I haven't got a bike like that? Let us know by selecting the 'borrow-a-bike' option and we can sort it out.
