Huw Williams is running a couple of 'Intro to CX' sessions out at Cyclopark over the next month or so.
I went along to the first one yesterday and found it really useful.
He's got a few bikes to lend out if you don't have your own.
We learnt some of what I guess are the basic CX techniques like how to dismount & remount on the move, getting the bike onto your shoulder swiftly, best angles to take to get up slopes etc.. We practiced them together on a course to make it feel a bit more like CX race.
It p!ssed it down the whole time we were out but that made for great practice conditions ( I wasn't quite as positive about being cold and wet yesterday).
He's holding the next session on 15th November.
Highly recommended to anyone who's keen.

Hi Pat - they are open to all ages and genders as far I'm aware but maybe drop Huw a message through facebook to double check?
