Criterium clinic in Aspen
With the Aspen Cycling Festival scheduled for the weekend, there will be a Criterium Clinic offered on Sunday morning before the Aspen Cycling Criterium.
The annual clinic will be offered by Sun Dog Athletics and Erik Skarvan. The clinic is scheduled to run from 8 a.m. to 8:45 a.m. on the course set up for the downtown criterium.
“While riding laps on the race course, this is an opportunity to quickly and safely gain new road-biking skills, including body positioning, drafting and cornering along with key tactics,” Skarvan said.
Registration will close at 6 p.m. Saturday. Cost is $25.
For information, call 970-925-1069.
