The Jets is a State-Wide Junior Development Program designed and administered by AusCycling Queensland. The program is targeted at 2nd year U13's, U15's and emerging U17 riders that aspire to achieve personal best cycling performances in both track and road disciplines. It is a supplementary program to club and regional training sessions targeting skills acquisition for road and track cycling events. The program is designed to be inclusive and give athletes additional training, camps and opportunities to assist with overall development and progression.

Jets begins for Term 4 on Monday 5th Oct, 2pm to 4pm at Brisbane International Cycle Park, a.k. Muzz. Road bikes for a session of track inspired races and games.

Sign-up for the AMV series too, as the first is on 10th/11th October.
Small prize (of inner joy) to anyone who knows why I chose this picture to start the track season.

Jets returns to AMV on Monday 27th. It is not often warm at this time of year. It is, in fact, jolly cold. Also, Parking will be in Car Park 2, which is that nearer the gymnastics, then walk round keeping the AMV on your right until you see the door opposite the BMX.

Saturday 25th Academy Session, sign up link below
The 10am - 12pm Speed and Skills Session with Adrian at Murarrie is open to U13 and U15 riders. New riders of the U17 age are also perfect for this session.

U17s, 10am - 1.15pm a ride out to Ford Rd / Avalon Rd, with breakaway and chase practice on Avalon Rd, overseen by elite riders. Hill finish 'racing games' on Summit Street before riding back to Murarrie. Bring food but eat well first!

Term 3 Jets begins on Monday 13th July.
Sign-up form will be in the comments box soon.
Weeks 1 and 2 start at 5.30pm are to be Rollers at Murarrie, Weeks 3 - 10 start at 5pm at AMV. Rollers are because Jets has a long history of rollers sessions and as the access to the AMV is a challenge with the BMX World Championships, which will be great to watch.

Why do we practice rollers?
Suplesse. This is a French word. If you can pedal better than your opponents you use fewer watts for the same speed. This is very helpful because then you can use more watts later in the race when your opponent has run out.

If I am already very good do I need to come?
Harrie Lavreyson recently posted online a high cadence session, and he is doing Japanese Keirin where they will have done rollers session as part of the preparation. So Harrie would say yes, and the QAS Sprint coach is sending 2 riders to join us.

Can I do the session my coach set me instead of joining in with the group?
No, as it works so much better as one crew. In one part of the room of a previous rollers session we had the Oceania Scratch Champion, a Team Sprint National Champion, a Cyclocross National Champion, an Australian Elite Team Sprint rider and a former UAE Dev squad rider so these sessions work for a wide range of riders.

Will this be a proper decent workout?
Yes, absolutely. This is a training session.

Will the music be good?
Yes. Week 1 is likely to be a collection of old-skool 90s clubland classics, with bubbling basslines, euphoric garage, and ambient trance warm-ups, and probably no Rick Astley, but you never know.

I’ve never ridden rollers. Is that OK?
Yes. This is where we learn.

What will I leave with after the sessions?
You will be better at pedalling, you will have a long and short warm up, which is expected at National Champs and should be something you have absolutely locked in, and you’ll be better at starting and stopping without holding on to a post or a parent, as that gives you so many more options at cycling events.

Road bike as it is winter?
You choose what bike, but a road bike does have a drinks holder, which is useful. But no mountain bikes or it sounds like a machine gun and the coach (and Cameron Douglas Savage) are in pain until the middle of the next day.

What else do I bring?
Water, a towel, and a battery powered fan is an excellent addition to your kit if you don’t have one, especially as there is no power outlet there.
