Don’t you just love May? 

With one bank holiday behind us, we still have another one to look forward to!  

And this year, Clancy Briggs is running 3 amazing days of cycling fun for kids of all ages over the Spring Bank Holiday week at the Doncaster Cycle Track.

It’s the perfect chance to get the kids off the devices to enjoy the great British outdoors and socialise whilst having fun on their bikes.

The Spring Bank Holiday Camp schedule covers all levels – PEDAL, ADVANCED PEDAL & RACE – so there’s something for every age group.

We are running full day and half day sessions, places are limited and are booking up fast, so book quickly to avoid disappointment.

You can read the full details about each camp below:

Date:               Tuesday 1st June 2021

Time:              10am – 4pm

Suitable for:    Children in the Youth A/B category (born in 05, 06, 07 or 08).  You must have a road bike. If you are a Youth C, please book our Advanced PEDAL camp.

Price:               £50

This is one not to be missed, an opportunity to learn from a current national champion.  Just like our very own Clancy Briggs Coaches, Joey Walker has competed in circuit races across the world and will be an amazing source of inspiration and knowledge on the day.  You can read more about Joey Walker’s career here.

During our circuit race masterclass, our expert coaches will introduce children to a set of skills that are essential for good racers at every level of the sport.

Over the last 12 months, young riders have had less opportunity to get together and learn the important skills of circuit racing, so this full day event is the perfect opportunity to explore the sport in more depth.

On the day we’ll cover race skills, drills and tactics and group riding skills.  We’ll also include some individual and team competitions and races.

Dates:              Wednesday 2nd June & Thursday 3rd June 2021

Time:                9am - 3.30pm (Full Day) / 9am - 12 noon (Half Day)

Suitable for:    Ages 5 - 16, must be able to ride without stabilisers & be comfortable spending the day away from their parents 

Price:               £50 per full day session / £25 per half day session 

For younger riders, these sessions are the perfect opportunity to really focus on their cycling skills under the expert guidance of our coaches.  They’ll make new friends and try new activities but most importantly, they’ll have lots of FUN!

During these camps we will be using ramps, playing games, team building, having some friendly races and educating the kids about cycling safety.

It will be fun, action-packed and kids will come home tired and happy from all that fresh air and exercise! What could be better?

Dates:              Wednesday 2nd June & Thursday 3rd June 2021

Time:                9am - 3.30pm (Full Day) / 9am - 12 noon (Half Day)

Suitable for:    Ages 8 – 16 or Youth C.  Children must be confident riders

Price:                £50 per full day session / £25 per half day session

For those riders who are confident but not yet at Youth A or B level, these sessions will push the kids a bit more to develop their cycling skill set.  We’ll challenge them with competitions and engage them with skills challenges using a more advanced equipment set up.

Kids will meet new friends and maybe old ones too  if they’ve been to our holiday camps before.  The primary focus of all our sessions is FUN – and the ADVANCED PEDAL camps are no exception.

We’ll be using ramps and bespoke equipment so the kids will get the chance to try new and exciting techniques.  It will be a brilliant day full of fresh air and exercise, not to be missed!

All children will need to bring with them their bike, helmet and gloves.

Due to the unpredictable weather, we also ask you to bring waterproofs and warm clothing such as a warm jacket and tracksuit bottoms.

Please ensure you send them with a packed lunch (if staying for the full day) and plenty of drinks and snacks – they will be busy sessions using lots of energy, so they need to stay well fuelled!

You can be totally assured that your children will be safe and happy at the Clancy Briggs Cycling Academy. Our whole team of coaches are:
