It’s a supportive and comfortable learning environment for riders of all ability and experience levels.
Nestled in a valley between the coastal mountains outside Santa Barbara and mountains of the Los Padres National Forest, this camp will teach you key techniques that help riders of all sizes and shapes excel when the road tips toward the sky. And since what goes up must come down, we’ll also help you develop the confidence and skills you need to descend quickly, safely, and efficiently.
This camp is designed for beginner and intermediate road cyclists who want to get better at riding, learn about training, and those who simply want get in a good 3-day training block. Each day will include 3-4 hours of riding, and we’ll complement the work we do on the bike with coach-led training presentations on sports nutrition, training with power, and other topics. You will also sit down individually with a coach for one-on-one power file data analysis after every ride. All camp rides feature full mechanic and nutrition support and a high coach-athlete ratio. We highly recommend that your bicycle be equipped with a 12-28 cassette, and a compact crankset, for this camp.
