Brackley Paracycling- & Beginner-Friendly Time Trial

  • Brackley Beach 4020 Brackley Point Rd Brackley Beach Canada (map)

We are pleased to invite you to the second 2022 Paracycling-Friendly Time Trial on the cycling path of the Gulf Shore Parkway, between Brackley Beach and Stanhope (a 10km course in total). This time, we are also opening up the time trial to a limited number of non-paracyclists who are race and time trial beginners. You are considered a beginner if you have participated in a maximum of one road cycling race or time trial previously.

We will be meeting at Brackley Beach by the picnic tables where the washrooms and showers are at 5:30pm, and the time trials will start at 6pm.

The route will be along the cycling path starting at Brackley Beach, down to the park entrance on Bayshore Rd where participants will turn around and return to the starting point. This is a nice, flat and straight course on a separated bike path.

We can also arrange for a shorter course for children or anyone else unprepared to complete the full 10km course - please let us know your needs and preferences!

How the time trial will work:

This time trial will include a mix of cyclists registered in the summer Paracycling Program (primarily visually impaired cyclists riding tandem bikes with sighted pilots), and a limited number of beginner, non-paracyclists.

In the time trial, each participant or tandem team will set off one at a time, with one minute between each participant. It is not really a race against other people, but a challenge to yourself, to see how quickly you can complete the course.

This time trial series is brought to you by Cycling PEI, ParaSport & Recreation PEI and CNIB-PEI with generous support from the Sport Partnership and Engagement Program, which is jointly funded by the Province of PEI (Department of Health and Wellness) and the Federal Government (Canadian Heritage - Sport Canada).

Thanks to the funding support we've received, participation in this event is FREE!

Please also note that entry to the park is free in the evening.
