GVVA

Still a few tweaks needed but this is what we have in mind for this year's Pacific Grand Prix! Fun guaranteed. We are going to run a Club Open category where all riders racing these events will have a 90" gear limit (elite riders are welcome to partake on the Friday Friendly Sprint Tourney 😉), and we've added a new event which is unique to our 333m track: the Devil's Kilo 😈 yup, 666m TT, WHY THE H3LL NOT!? ChatGPT (and our volunteer staff) are working on registration and tech guide for . But mark your calendars, find a pet sitter for those dates, and we'll see you on June 12-14 for a whole lot of fun with some bike racing thrown in 🏁

Wait a second, what do you mean we have a SECOND open house!? 😱 Yes! June 6th is our summer open house, tell your friends, bring your friends, come try track cycling out for free! Just need to bring your helmet, we'll get you set up on a track bike and our coaches will guide you. See you then!

GVVA x race night #1 is coming soon. New to track racing or need a refresher? Come to the new riders orientation at 5pm. Don't have a track bike? We got you covered, and we're going to limit all gearing (to UNDER 93") to keep it fair, just remember to bring your pedals. Racing at 630pm: scratch race, elimination (results will be used for keirin seeding), and keirin! See you on Wednesday 🏁
