Hello Jeremy- there are currently no beginner lessons for the Speed Club. However, the Scooter’s Roller Rink offers beginner lessons.
If there is enough demand and inquiries, there’s the possibility of running a 11:30am program on Sunday mornings.
The 2009 information will come out later- times, dates, fees, and more.
