Looking for a cycling camp to really challenge yourself, get in some great base miles, and learn power from the guy who wrote the book on power, Hunter Allen? Well, here is the cycling camp for YOU!
The goal of this cycling camp is to focus on improving your ride skills and techniques as well as race tactics and strategy. The beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains are the perfect place for a cycling camp with awesome climbing opportunities, quiet country roads for race scenarios, and it’s the hometown for the Peaks Coaching Group Headquarters. You will receive daily on-the-road coaching from Hunter, Scott, and the team as well as after ride power analysis and power training that will help your training all season long.
