"In football and basketball, a 'coach' is part of the default scenery and is always associated with the sport.  You always assume that when the players aren't on the field or court, they are being 'coached'.  Road Racing however is more of an individual sport and although we often seek advise from everyone and anyone, we tend to leave out the "coaching" aspect of our quest to be and go 'faster'.

My coaching session this past Sunday was the best investment I've made towards racing, Period.   Rather than focusing on simply 'going faster', we focused on the foundational parts of racing which will make you a faster, safer rider.  The rotation of our track time with class time combined with your approach for analyzing my riding strengths/areas where I needed to improve was extremely effective.

24 hours after my coaching session I could still see a track map in my mind with notes of almost everything we've discussed.   Again, very effective!

I had no idea what to expect, however this was exactly, Exactly what I needed.  Thanks Ryan!!!"

"I can't believe how everything you taught me just clicked on Sunday.  It was the most amazing experience to race with that kind of confidence."

"First of all, there's no bull crap.. Ryan analyzed what I was doing right, and also analyzed the aspects of my riding I could improve upon. And then he's able to articulate what he saw out there in a manner that makes sense right away. Ryan was never condescending, but certainly not afraid to tell me where I seriously needed help.

Having Ryan completely focused on me and my riding, and helping me to get the most out of my day, was invaluable. I can't wait to get out there again and practice what I learned.  Bar none.. this has been one of the best things I've ever done for myself.

All for less than the cost of a set of tires. It was everything I was hoping for!"

"I am a brand new rider with hardly any street experience. You gave me confidence to ride.  A few sessions at the track with you, and I feel I have been given a great starting point in which to build upon.
 
What I particularly found great is the fact that you spent time with me and talked to me in between sessions. That's where I learned a great deal. It was a combination of track time AND off-track time.

I feel that even though you are at the racing level, you were able to adapt well to teaching a new rider the fundamentals. In other words, you didn't speak in terms I did not understand or could never hope to try so soon in my riding. Everything we talked about made sense and was something I could employ immediately.

I appreciate your teaching style. You are able to point out aspects of my riding that need work in a way where I didn't feel foolish.  Likewise, you were very encouraging when I made improvements throughout the day.

All in all, I feel I learned more in 1 day from you than I did in the previous 3 months of riding with friends."

"The thing that I have never seen anybody really do, is that you took the time in between sessions and explained every single thing in detail in a language that we could understand. The theory sessions and notes in between made me feel that we are actually really doing a sort of academy where you care what will be the outcome of your students."
