It’s time to raise the roof! What roof are we referring to, you ask? This time of year is the perfect time to raise the ceiling.
Your ceiling is also known as your long term potential. This camp will give you the knowledge, hands on guidance, and experience to set yourself up to break through ceilings in 2022!
What levels are this for? All of them! We will have riders who are just getting started with cycling to riders who are at the top level. To accommodate each level we will be breaking up into groups out on the road for specific work as well as pacing.
We will work on:
Solo and group riding skills
Raising your fitness ceiling increasing the long-term potential of zone growth
Building Muscular Strength
