Our Programs
Coached Programs.
Try the Track.
Try the Track is a beginner-friendly intro session to safely experience riding the velodrome on a fixed-gear bike. There is no need to register for the Try the Track session, just bring the appropriate completed waiver (see below).
Please note: Completion of this session—or proof of prior track experience (subject to staff approval)—is required before participating in any other CBTL programming or sessions.
This session is your first step toward getting introduced to the velodrome and learning how to ride the track. CBTL staff will guide you through the fundamentals of riding a fixed-gear track bike and help you build the skills and confidence to ride safely on the velodrome.
Topics include:
Track etiquette and safety
The meaning of the different lines on the track
How to start and stop
How to ride safely with others
Club bikes are available for all participants, so all you need to bring is a helmet and a sturdy pair of shoes.
Try the Track sessions run every Sunday from 10:00 AM to 11:30 AM.
After completing a session, you can speak with a CBTL staff member to find the program that best suits your goals, or you can browse the program section on our website. We offer options for youth, adults, women, and open track time if you simply want to ride without structure.
Don’t forget to bring your completed waiver:
Youth Program.
A fun and progressive track cycling program for riders aged 10–16, designed to build skills, fitness, and race readiness.
This program is for riders aged 10–16 who are confident on road, mountain, or BMX bikes (able to mount, ride, stop, dismount, and ride ~20 minutes at a modest pace). Riders will be split into two groups: one for first-time or newer track cyclists, and one for intermediate/elite youth athletes.
Beginner riders will learn to ride fixed-gear track bikes (CBTL bikes provided), focusing on safety, bike handling, and the basics of track racing—all in a fun, supportive environment.
Advanced riders will further develop their skills, fitness, and tactical awareness.
Both groups will be prepared to participate in Thursday Night Racing, the School’s Out Dash (June 21/22), and the Provincial Championships.
We are offering two Youth Development sessions in 2025—spring and summer. You may register for one or both:
Spring: May 14 – June 28
Summer: July 2 – August 16
Session times: Wednesdays 5:00–6:30 PM & Saturdays 10:00–11:30 AM

Manic Monday Women's Program.
The mid-summer evolution of the popular Women’s Program.
Have you been to the “Try the Track” or even an Open Session or two, and ever wondered, what’s next? How do I train? How do I advance into the world of track racing? Or maybe you’ve just been a little too intimidated to do either because you don’t feel like you know enough yet, or you do and just want to come hang out with some rad ladies!?
Offered in partnership with Watt Riot Cycling, this four-week program runs Mondays, 6:30–8:30 PM, starting July 7, with the last session on July 28.
After completing the program, you’ll have the option to upgrade to a full CBTL membership and join other CBTL programs for the rest of the season.
