Spring Training Camp – Tucson, AZ
February 18-23, 2013
It’s Spring in Tucson! Get off your trainer and come down to the warm sunshine in Tucson, Arizona, to put in your Foundation Training for 2013! This camp focuses on power-based endurance training with experienced coaches by your side.
The camp is five and a half days of riding and presentations. Every bike will be outfitted with a PowerTap power meter and the power files will be analyzed daily by your assigned Carmichael Training Systems coach. You’ll learn training techniques and get to practice these techniques under the supervision of the coaches. Carmichael Training Systems camp rides will all leave from the Carmichael Training Systems Tucson Regional Center and are fully supported. We welcome riders of all levels.
Tucson is located in Southern Arizona surrounded by Saguaro Cacti and overlooked by our 9000’ peak, Mount Lemmon. With 300 days of annual sunshine per year, Tucson is known as a mecca for cyclists. In April 2006, the League of American Bicyclists promoted the Tucson region to “Gold” status on their certification system of the nation’s most “bicycle friendly” cities, making Tucson one of only seven cities in the U.S. to earn such distinguished status. Furthermore, two of the most popular and highly regarded bicycling publications, Bicycling and VeloNews, continue to rank our city in the top tier of “bicycle friendly” cities nationwide. In fact, Bicycling recently promoted Tucson to the #2 bicycling city nationwide for cities with population ranging from 250,000 to 500,000. Tucson is the winter training home of many professional cyclists and triathletes.
The weather during this time of year can vary from 60-75 degrees as a daily high. Chances of rain are very minimal but come prepared for all weather conditions.
