Ready to Ride Keirin Like a Pro?
Keirin racing is more than just speed—it’s strategy, timing, and precision. If you’ve got any level of track experience and a hunger to learn what Keirin racing is all about, the Alberta Velodrome Association invites you to their one-day Keirin Racing Clinic on Saturday, August 9, 2025.
What to Expect:
- 9:30–11:30 AM – Expert-led classroom instruction provided by National Sprint Team member Ryan Dodyck based on real racing scenarios and his extensive experience
- 11:30–12:30 PM – Lunch provided (because riders fuel smart)
- 1:00–4:00 PM – On-track Keirin experience & tactical breakdown (participation is at your discretion, and you can still learn much from the discussions they’ll be having without riding in a Keirin yourself!)
Cost: $75 per participant
Payment Method: eTransfer only to [email protected]
→ Please include “Keirin Clinic” in your eTransfer message
Important:
Participants must have prior track riding experience, but racing experience NOT needed. Own track bikes are required, but loaner bikes are available if needed. As a Velocity member you’ll have access to our club bikes.
Spots are limited—don’t miss this crash-free crash course that blends theory, tactics, and real-time racing insights.

Saturday Ride
We’ll try a different start location on the west side in Acheson this week. There’s an great little coffee shop called The Wall Coffee Roasters on Acheson Road. We’ll meet there and hopefully plan a post-ride coffee stop afterwards. And with the mini-heat wave we’re experiencing, Saturday’s ride will start at 9am, to beat some of the heat.
Sunday Road Ride
The last Sunday ride attempt got rained out. Arneil will try again, leaving from the Tamarack Tim Hortons at 9am.
Monday Track Night
It’s holiday Monday this week, and the velodrome will be closed. No session this week.
Tuesday MTB Ride
I heard there was a bit of drama during last week’s ride. What happened? Find out this week when you meet Justin in Capilano Park for the MTB ride this week.
Wednesday Hill Circuit
Meet us at 6:30pm in Emily Murphy Park for about a 90 minute road and paved trail circuit.
