Not until recently have I instructed while off the bike. This was not out of desire, but necessity. I personally enjoy instructors who cycle with the class. I personally do not require one on one attention, but others may like a personal touch in their class. For an entire week I taught all classes on... Continue Reading →

On the Road: Clarkston, WA to Mary Hill State Park, WA
