Our Clinics
Try a Tri
APRIL
This clinic is for all you ladies who are doing your first triathlon or going for a better time or longer distance than you have before. Our certified USA Triathlon coaches will go over all the basics of triathlon, from training to equipment to what to expect on race day.
Whether you are thinking about getting your feet wet in your first triathlon (pun intended!), or have done 1 or 2 and want to do a longer distance or beat a past time, this clinic is for you! We’ll have wine, beer and hors-d’oeuvres to make for a fun informative evening. Bring yourself and a friend!
Fix-a-Flat
April-oCTOBER, 2nd Monday of each month at 7:00
We decided to do this class because changing a flat is not only a useful skill but it’s also a safety issue. If you can change a flat yourself, you don’t have to be stuck away from home, or rely on the kindness of a stranger to help you out.
Give-A-Shift
may
Don’t let shifting give you the shivers. Come to Give-a-Shift, our hands on shifting & gearing clinic, which we hold about twice a year. In this class we will teach you when to shift gears on the bike, as well as what not to do. With your bike in a trainer, you will go through all of your gears. You’ll get off your bike to see how many gear combos you have, what cross-chaining is and how your front and rear derailleur move with each “click” of the shift lever.
Bike Camping
June
We've got experts in bike camping that are ready to give you all the info. From what gear to pack, how to pack it, route planning on the road, and everything else you’ll need to know before hitting the road — we’ve got you covered.
Clipless Curious
July
If you’ve ever thought “What’s the deal with those cycling shoes that attach to pedals?” then this clinic is for you! We'll cover how clipless pedals make you a more efficient rider and what types of pedals and shoes are best for your riding style.
Fit, Form, Function
AUGUST
If you’re thinking about getting a new bike this season or just want to know more about the bike you have, mark your calendars for this clinic.
