Cycle Coaching East provides coaching for those
who cycle to keep fit, or want to improve their cycling performance.
We provide coaching for all
cyclists and would be cyclists, throughout the Eastern Region. Whether you
want to learn to ride a bike for the first time, or to encourage a
youngster to become involved in one of the healthiest sports available.
Or you
may be an experienced cyclist wanting to ride a faster ten mile time trial, go from a 4th Cat to 1st Cat road man, or ride any new cycling
discipline such as hard track for the first time. We have the necessary experience
and expertise to help you.
We run a club for youngsters, to ensure they get a sound start in our sport. We provide talks and training
events for any club that does not have a coach of their own. If you
want to become a coach, we are the people to help you.
We run cycling programs for both adults
and young people on behalf of local authorities including Chelmsford
Borough Council and Essex County Council. Our courses 'Cycle Start' and
'Into Cycling' are for youth and adult cyclists respectively. This
training is aimed to encourage people to cycle for transport, fitness and
leisure, or to become the next Lance Armstrong!
Cycle Coaching East is an independent
organization aimed at improving and developing coaching throughout Eastern
Region. We have the use of an advanced fitness suit, equipped with 'Computrainers',
'I-Magic' Trainers, and Tacx 'Grand Master' Trainers as well as a range of
fitness equipment for all round training.
Our facilities include access to an 'off
road' area where newcomers can learn to cycle for the first time. This
area also doubles as a safe area for youngsters to learn to cycle without
traffic hazards.

Most coaches have to rely on feedback from the rider, to determine progress. Our
testing equipment monitors the training of our athletes,
reinforcing the personal feedback information they provide, and with much greater
accuracy. This enables optimisation of the program they are following,
helping them to reach up to a much higher level of performance.
