Professional coaching packages
Unlock your cycling potential with personalised coaching that emphasises technique, endurance, and performance. Whether you’re a weekend warrior or training for races, we tailor our approach to fit your goals.
There is no lengthy sign-up required, all we ask is that you commit to a minimum of 3 months so that you can see tangible results from working with us - after that, it's up to you whether we continue to work together.
Each programme is designed around you as an individual, according to your base fitness level, where you would like to improve, and the amount of time you would like to spend getting there.
All of our team have been coaching and working with athletes for a considerable period time - over 40 years when you add it all together! We each continue our professional development, striving to be the best in our respective fields.

Henrietta (affectionately known just as ‘H’) qualified as an ABCC coach in 2019 and has coached for the past three years seeing some of her riders take part in the UCI master’s world championships. H splits her time between Cumbria and mainland Europe, where she trains and competes at UCI and World Tour level for the Dutch based GT Krush TUNAP women’s pro cycling team. H knows better than anyone that as well as the ‘numbers’ your head has to be ‘in the game’ to succeed in competition.
