KW Cycling Academy at FCV

Beginning in late September a group of 14 KW Cycling Academy athletes ranging in age from 9 - 18 attended several Learn to Ride sessions at the tight 138m Indoor velodrome in London Ontario.  

Fast forward 10 weeks and all the athletes have improved their speed, endurance & strength on the track by attending 2 sessions per week at the FCV.  Many of the athletes are 20% quicker in timed efforts the squad have completed using Aerobars and Disc wheels.

With a very reasonable annual FCV Youth membership at $300... each youth athlete have already received more than their monies worth of value in track time.

Wicked Wednesday’s is a favourite among all the riders, we put many sprint and endurance efforts into our legs in a short 1.5hrs.  Sessions begin at 5pm for the Intermediate athletes, our Cadets & Juniors attend the 6:30pm class on Wednesday’s... all of the class's are "sold out" each week.

Our next scheduled Track 1 (Learn to ride) sessions are scheduled for early January.  Mark your calendar... Monday January 2nd.  If you are interested email:  info@kwcyclingacademy.ca. to find out more information.
