Ride the Track
Juniors (ages under 18) can ride the track for free and get free use of the fixed gear rental bikes for training. (The Santa Clara County Parks Dept. charges a $5 vehicle entrance fee to get into the park). Parents/Guardians must sign a release annually on behalf of minors who use the track.
With signed parental release, juniors can ride the track in any session whose purpose is matched to their skill level. Additionally, there are two regularly scheduled programs, with very different goals and functions for young cyclists: every Tuesday afternoon, a program for juniors 14-18 and espoirs(seniors 19-22), and on alternating Sunday afternoons, a newer Intermediate program for juniors 10-15.
