Performance Coaching for All Cycling Disciplines
Whatever Your Goal, I Help You Train Smarter
|
Whether you're training for your first local race, chasing a new PR in a national event, planning a multi-day bikepacking adventure, or wanting to maintain your lifestyle, I can help you achieve your goal!
I offer coaching across every major cycling discipline, starting at any fitness level. From junior athletes growing their skills to more experienced riders staying active into retirement, I design custom training plans that fit your ability, support your goals, and drive steady, sustainable progress. Each sport demands different skills, fitness zones, and recovery strategies—and my role as your cycling coach is to help you train smart, stay consistent, and track progress, while preventing over-training and burnout. |

Road Cycling
Structured coaching for road athletes focusing on endurance development, power output, race tactics, climbing efficiency, and seasonal planning. Ideal for criteriums, road races, gran fondos, and long-distance events. Mountain Biking (MTB) MTB coaching blends technical handling, strength training, and aerobic conditioning. Perfect for cross-country (XC), trail, enduro, and off-road athletes who want better control, improved climbing endurance, and confident descending. Cyclocross (CX / Cross) High-intensity CX training that develops fast power, repeatability, cornering skills, dismounts/remounts, and race-day pacing. Designed for beginners through elite racers preparing for the fall/winter cyclocross season. Time Trial (TT) Aerodynamic efficiency, pacing strategies, and power-based training tailored to individual courses. TT coaching includes position analysis, threshold development, and fine-tuned interval work. |

Gravel racing requires stamina, bike handling, fueling strategy, and smart power management. Training plans incorporate long-steady endurance rides, mixed-terrain intervals, and equipment setup guidance.

Training includes load management, route planning, endurance & strength development, and gear selection for safe, efficient travel.

Emphasis is on foundational skills and progressive training plans that build strength and endurance. Triathlon, Ironman & Multi-Discipline Events Comprehensive development across all sports, strength & fitness while maintaining balance of life (family, work, etc) with the demands of multi-sport training. High awareness of over-training and burnout. Guidance on pacing and pushing limits. |
What Athletes Say
Brian helped me train and race at a high level while balancing a demanding job and a growing family. His ability to adapt training to real life is what sets him apart.” Brian trained me for nearly a year and I finished RAAM stronger than I ever imagined—setting personal power records on the final day. |
Brian’s coaching rides built the endurance and skills I needed to complete a 4+ hour mountain bike race in brutal heat and humidity. The improvement in my handling over roots and rocks made a huge difference. I’m excited to keep building toward bigger goals like Leadville. Even with fewer training hours than my competitors, structured workouts based on meaningful data put me on the podium. |
Brian helped me pace smarter and target the right systems. I finished eight minutes faster than the previous year, gaining six minutes on the bike alone. The program is technically excellent, adaptive, and keeps me motivated. I’m getting fitter every week and highly recommend Brian as a coach. |

Training Tips & Advice

Virtual Racing: Use Judiciously
Like it or not, Virtual Racing, or E-Racing is here, and quite likely here to stay. There’s even National Championships, Professional Zwift Racing Teams, and some real money behind the competitions. Virtual races can really be a lot of fun, but you've got to be careful you don't burn yourself out or overtrain. Learn More > |
Why Your Next Indoor Ride Needs a Real Coach
The benefits of having real-time feedback on your effort - informed by live data of your heart rate, cadence, power and other metrics - are simply staggering. Your coach isn’t just a pre-recorded video. It's not passive instruction; it’s an active, two-way dialogue that helps you correct bad habits and push harder than you thought possible. Learn More > |
Healthy Nutrition During the Holidays
It’s so cliché but I truly believe that moderation is the key. Depriving yourself of these holiday meals and treats during your social gatherings can often backfire. Healthier eating does not need to be a toggle switch, where on one side you’re eating like a small bird and the other is throwing in the towel for complete gluttony. Learn More > |
