I was a late starter to cycling at nearly 40 years of age; I got the bug and started racing.

I asked John to coach me and it was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.  Fast forward 10 years and I’m now a 50 year old Road Bike TT specialist who has a busy life with limited (6-8) weekly training hours and still getting faster year on year !

I can’t speak highly enough of John.  His expertise and knowledge of all things training/racing is second to none.  Everything is always fully explained as to how and why we are doing things a certain way.  He is so insightful and objective and his enthusiasm and positivity is infectious.

Road Bike TTing is my thing and is a hard discipline.  The aero tuck position on a road bike really hurts and damages the whole body a lot.  John fully understands and appreciates this so plans a key weekly aero tuck session into the training plan at the optimum time to keep the sessions as focused and strict as possible to create the necessary adaptions in position.

I turned 50 years old during the 2024 season and yet produced the fastest tides I’ve ever done with performances I never thought possible.  I’m living proof with the right guidance age really is no barrier and is just a number.

John really has left no stone unturned in ensuring he gets the best out of me and I’m very lucky to have him as my coach.
