The mid-week training sessions take place on Tuesday and Thursday evenings and can involve various types of training, such as speed, hill, road etc. During the summer we train off road and in the winter on minor roads and lanes. We meet at 7:00pm at Tom Brad's Croft Car Park, Canal Street, Whaley Bridge (free Car Park near the Medical Centre). Click here for directions.
This session is affectionately known as the 'Bad Lads Army'. The session is organised by Andy Pead and Shaun Coram who put members through their paces. Andy brings with him a wealth of experience from competing at an elite level. The sessions concentrate on speed and hill work and are aimed at improving performance in competition. Some of the sessions have interesting names such as the 'Goyt Buster' and the 'Torr-Minator'. These sessions are not for the elite, they are for everyone, so if you want to improve, get along. Sessions take place on Saturday afternnon from Thornsett Band Hall, Thornsett Road, New Mills Click here for directions.
