Ritzel Kitzel Training in biking techniques

TRAINING IN BIKING TECHNIQUES

Better ride like a hero than dress to impress.

So that, as the next step, you can register for ‘Rampage’, not only need to follow Lance Armstrong on Twitter any more, or – for reasons that are entirely practical – so that you can impress the love of your life at the next set of traffic lights with consummate ease – skills training in biking techniques is bound to get you closer to your goal.

Whether in an urban setting, on the road, on a single trail or in the bike park, technique is what makes the difference and determines how quickly you progress and how much fun you have doing it.

We’ll provide you with the tips, tricks, and inside info you need to use your skills wisely and handle any terrain. Performing immaculate jumps. With style. Saving on energy when biking uphill and downhill. Or purposefully posting record times. What a terrific feeling!

Give it a try: What have you got to lose?
