MeetUp Skills clinics

So I've been organizing skills rides on the website MeetUp. It's been a way to start introducing people to skills. Mostly the rides have been casual where we ride and I am sure to give instructions as we go, but we avoid doing official drills and skills like I'd do for a more formal setting.

I've decided to expand on the MeetUps and start adding skills clinics. These have a modest charge of $30 per person and the clinic sizes are limited to 5 people. This keeps it small and manageable. If you are interested in joining and seeing what I can offer come out! There will be one this Saturday at 1:30 in the Belmont Plateau and next Saturday at the same time.

There is also a free ride session next Saturday the 8th at 9:30am in the Wissahickon. This one will concentrate on log hopping and cornering.

Come join us!

New things to play with!

I just got a Cardo Bluetooth communications system to play with. It will allow two way communications with clients so I can give instant clear feedback as we ride and do skills. It's for one on one interaction so no groups yet, but the possibilities are exciting!
I'll be in your ear like all coaches should be!
