Pre-season Training Camp

The focus of the camp is to prepare you for racing in the upcoming season. The camp will include endurance rides where we will evaluate your aerobic base and power. We will provide you with feedback on where you need to be based on your 2023 goals.
This is a unique opportunity to train and work with PCC head coach Houshang Amiri who is leading the camp. You will find out what you need to know about how to build and tune your fitness.
