Description
2021 Cheaha Challenge Gran Fondo/Ultra Climb & Descend Camp
Q: Ever hesitated in participating in an ‘epic climb’ event because you weren’t sure you could do it? Q: Do you shy away from descents because you’re not sure you can handle the high speeds and sharp turns? Q: Do you already have the ability and strength to climb and descend with confidence and think you don’t need (or want) any more tips? Q: Are you somewhere in between a ‘newbie’ and a seasoned cyclist?
In other words, the Cheaha Climbing Camp can benefit ANY cyclist. ‘Coach’ Robert will share Climbing and Descending skills and drills in this 3-day Camp, that will empower you to climb and descend beyond your current capabilities and comfort zone.
