Good convo over at Trainer Road. @ me

Cyclocross is all about who rides the course the fastest! Not the prettiest! Make time to pre-ride so you know how to rip the course! Check the race schedule for the day and plan out when you can get on the course! This podcast goes into detail about what you should be doing on your pre-ride, how many laps you should do, how fast your laps should be and why the pre-ride is so important.      Hit me up with questions/comments - Josh@EVOQ.BIKE Remember! Don’t ride reverse on the course in your pre-ride! and don’t ride on the course when a race starts!    Keep cross weird! Have fun out there - cross is coming!

Keep following your path; whether you are 3 months in, or 3 years in, you are new. I know, you may not want to hear that, but if you want to see YOUR highest level of performance, it takes time. And it takes consistency. Day in, day out. There is no way around that. I promise you. #FastestAt40.  Brendan@EVOQ.BIKE 🧩

Cyclocross is a game of skills! and endurance, but a lot of it is skills. Let's chat about the most important skill - cornering! Find your limits, keep your momentum and just keep practicing!   4 pointers;  1 - Look through the turn / anticipate  watch the exit anticipate what’s coming and be prepared  2 - Stay relaxed, loose ready to react find when you can pedal, then accelerate!   3 - Tire pressure experiment! keep a log for different conditions   4 - Use the course and adapt! know your lines don’t focus on burned in lines adapt as the course changes - find the green! Green means go!   Drills; basic corner w/ variations circle of death! peanut drill tight cornering   Get out and practice!
