So.... I teach the adult developmental classes at the San Diego Velodrome.  The classes are 6 weeks long.  I love coaching these track classes, the  riders learn how to ride and race track bikes and everyone has a great time.  The classes are tons of fun, but my favorite night is the last night of each session.  I always tell the students " We go to Lefty's Pizza the last night of class.  If you had fun, you buy one of the coaches a slice of pizza or a beer.  If you didn't have fun....we get to buy our own dinner" 

 They say a picture is worth a thousand words.....take a look a this photo of my assistant coach Jesse, and  the 5 beers in front of him will tell you  that lots of people had fun:

If you want to take track class, the next one starts June 17th.  You can find more information here:

I recently wrote about  coached rider Tammy Wildgoose from UC San Diego being chosen as part of an all star collegiate women's cycling team racing at the Nature Valley Grand Prix.  Velonews.com recently posted a short article about the team:

Collegiate All-Star women chosen

I friend of mine sent me this photo the other day.... this looks like a fun bike to ride...

I've been coaching Tammy W since the end of last summer. Tammy is a student at UC San Diego and she has been concentrating on collegiate cycling, with a goal of peaking at the Collegiate National Championships. Tammy has had a few good results along the way, but her best result of the year was by far her 3rd place Collegiate National Championship Criterium. As a result of her results that weekend, Tammy has been invited to race on a composite womens team at the Nature Valley Grand Prix Pro Stage race!
