Cycling Skills Clinics

After a seemingly neverending monsoonal spring, we keep hearing from folks that they're behind in their biking goals. But we find ourselves inundated with race and ride opportunities! For those looking to find their legs again (and better than ever before), perhaps it's time for that one-on-one coaching experience. Highly credentialed and a great friend of the shop, Tim Edwards of North Coast Endurance Coaching offers a variety of classes, all sure to leave you with a noggin full of knowledge.

Sign up for a small and personal, full-day skills clinic for mountain biking, road cycling, triathlon/time trials or cyclocross. Invest in your own abilities and move to the head of the pack this season!

2 reviews in 1: On Sunday a good size group of us headed out to the Cleveland Metro Parks Canal Way Visitor Center for the very first PAVE de Old Brooklyn to Tremont. The ride put together by MRC's own Paul Hamad, was in the vein of the Spring Classics. Lots of brick roads, short steep climbs, a little bit of trail, and very cool neighborhoods. In tow, was a New custom built Kona Major Jake, ready for an inagural ride. This bike was built as the Road bike for road season and cyclocross for the cyclocross season. All that will be required is a tire and crank swap. The ride was 30 miles in all and this bike was designed perfectly for this ride. The upgraded Avid Shorty Ultimate brakes handled all the steep fast and short desents, while the Sram Force 50-34 crank offered perfect gearing for a true road ride. This frameset simply put rides "amazing" The tapered head/steer tube up front made cornering a dream and spot on. Stiff when needed and very suitable for all day riding describes the rest. Back to the ride. The route had us hitting every brick road from Old Brooklyn down to Tremont then over to Steelyard commons. I had forgotten how many parks and bike trails surround the area. Keep an I out for a sencond one, judging by the amount of fun everyone had. Click here for a map of the ride/route.
My only complaint was Honey Hut was not open, better be next time.
