I lost my emails during the Tour of California so I apologize for the lack of response on anything sent to me then. For now, if they are important, please send (or resend) emails to turbotrnr@aol.com.

Riding yourself is a great way to get comfortable on your bike and start to gain fitness. But, it can get a bit lonely. Group riding might look intimidating, but there are ways to ease yourself into the fun… More …

I spent the last couple weeks working at the Tour of California. It was a great, but nerve wracking experience. I have been racing my bike forever, but I have never seen a bike race from the inside perspective that I had at the Tour of California. I took on two roles, my first was as a field reporter for Versus, and my second was as a VIP driver in the caravan. More …

Pretty exciting stuff in there. Please go check it out!

Last week the High Road Team was in town getting tested in the wind tunnel. I went into go visit with my friends from GIANT and from the team. I picked up a new team bike from High Road, and I am excited to start riding it!

I haven’t been to a wind tunnel in years, and so it was an awesome experience to be able to watch the aero testing of the team. I had the fortune of hanging out with Steve Hed, who is an icon in cycling, having come up with the first real road disc wheel. He is the most sought after person to work on aero bike position.

Yesterday I went to the Fiesta Island Time Trial in San Diego. It was the first time that I have ever been to a race as a coach, and not as an athlete. I have to admit, there was a part of me that missed the excitement. I found myself getting nervous anticipating the starts of the athletes I work with! More …

Lately, I have had a lot of women asking me about learning to ride. It’s exciting to me that so many people are interested in getting involved in cycling. I’ve been doing it for so long that sometimes I forget about what it feels like to be just starting out. But, that being said, I can vividly remember my first time on clipless pedals, and also learning how to shift, brake and basically just get comfortable. More …

I often go out for rides just to enjoy the scenery and company, but sometimes when I’m alone I like to add some intensity to my ride. I have spent so many years training and racing, that now I like to go hard to burn off energy and keep myself sharp enough to keep up on the local group rides.

I would suggest that anyone who is interested in a real training program should hire a coach to help them stay motivated and on target. But, there are little tricks that you can use to spice up and intensify your workouts. More …

Hi, welcome to my website. I wanted to let everyone know that it is under construction and that I will soon fill it with everything to do with cycling. Please check back soon.

It’s that time of year again when trying to decide what to wear on the bike becomes a bit more challenging. Today I am packing for a ride from San Luis Obispo to San Diego. It is for the Qualcomm Million Dollar Challenge. Our ride was supposed to be a few weeks ago from San Francisco to San Diego, but because of the fires that devastated Southern California we stopped after San Luis Obispo. So, tonight I’ll board a plane to finish up the ride with over 75 people from the initial group! More …
