Multi Masters World, European and Elite British titles.

Current World Masters Record holder in 500m

I have been working with Steve for just over two years now and I am really enjoying the experience.  He has breathed new life into my cycling and I am more motivated to train and race than ever before. 

 

Steve has to plan training around my work and other commitments but even so I have ridden a number of PB’s over 2k pursuit and 500m TT, including a new World Masters record for the 500m TT.

 

Steve manages to balance the need for coaching to be both personal and professional.  He is happy to be challenged and has been generous with his time, discussing questions I have and explaining exactly why sessions are planned as they are – his patience is legendary. 

 

Under his guidance, I have managed to incorporate a strength and conditioning programme that has worked to improve my back pain and overall I understand more about myself now as an athlete than ever before.
