Get out of jail

 

Track cycling races are full of tactics, to an onlooker it may seem that riders just ride around in circles on a never ending road but infact it is full of action pack scenarios .

 Riders will do all they can to out whit and out smart the other riders, track cycling races are not won by fitness alone, at times when riders may be suffering from fatigue caused by other riders showing their dominance, it is possible to stop dominant riders or rider from having it their way by tactically blocking them.

Riding along the outside of your chosen targeted rider at a time when they are following the wheel of another track cyclist during a track cycle race will stop them from being able to over take the leading riders at a key moment like an attack to the finish .

If the pace is fast and there are no other riders to follow going up to the front of the bunch it is a very difficult position to be in, if a rider had the strength they probably would not need to use a blocking technique in the first place, blocking manoeuvres usually happen when the pace has slowed down and the track riders bunch together leaving an opportunity for riders to block.

Blocking is best done by riding on the outside and half a bike length ahead of your targeted rider controlling them by giving them less opportunity to steer their way out of surrounding track riders while bunched closely together. Attacks usually come from the rear of the group with speed gained by kicking from the height advantage of the velodrome banking.

 What if this is happening to me ? There are ways to create a space , react immediately to limit your losses, if there is only one rider along side you, by standing up and get out of the saddle and riding a bit erratically though false will prompt the outer rider’s instinct to ride a little higher up the velodrome banking for their own safety giving you a wider berth and creating an opening for your exit.

Although it can not always be helped, try not to get in this position in the first place, prevent the track cycle rider from pulling along side you by giving small flicks of the rear wheel to make a rider think twice about blocking you.

Case when being surrounded by bunch of riders is to slow your track cycle down to a speed that other riders feel uncomfortable , there’s a high chance that many will break the formation and pick up their speed which will create your exit, tell tail signs of this is riders start to shout instruction to speed up as they loose their cool !

A track cycling exercise called get out of jail is a fun way of practising both scenarios, it is a good track cycling exercise to use at squad camps when track craft and techniques is the main focus.

 

Get out of jail is performed by recreating the race scenario with out the speed fatigue .

The track cycling coach will nominate track riders in order to roll play and take turn at both scenarios.

Group of track rider surround the nominated rider at any position not just at the bottom of velodrome track.

Track cycling coach sounds whistle to start the exercise.

Nominated rider tries to escape from the group and get ahead of the other riders.

On success of the escape a new nominated rider takes up the roll of the escapee

I hope you find this information useful whether you are a track cycling coach or a rider of a future track cycling session
