**** This is UK Breeze coaching session, brought to you by a qualified British Cycling Coach ****
There are SIX Coaching Sessions in this 'Sportive' Series. We will be looking at the skills & knowledge you need to train for and ride a longer sportive, such as the Tour de Mon (TDM). They will be fun with a few challenges thrown in, but only do as much as you are comfortable with.
We will also have our own “Breeze Wave” start at the TDM and the chance to ride the Bach with a Breeze Champion. There will be further training rides from other Champions over the summer.
Whilst we are focusing on the Tour de Mon in this coaching series, these sessions would also be great training for any Sportive or becoming more confident & fitter on longer rides.
Whilst you may not be able to attend all sessions, it is recommended that you attend as many as possible in the series to build on your skills.
These sessions are not aimed at complete beginners, but to build skills and confidence.
Each coaching session will be followed by a Led Ride to practice the skills - you need to book on the led rides separately. If you can’t make a session or ride, please do cancel your place, as spaces will be limited and this gives someone else the chance to attend.
