‘It feels much more natural’

“I knew my positioning wasn’t working, but Mark gave me clear pointers on where I should be. It all seemed so obvious once he talked me through it.

“I don’t ride every day, so I think that was making it even harder, but I’ve got all these little pointers now so I know what to think about and that’s going to be a big help.

“I really enjoyed the training. It’s going to make my riding so much more relaxed. I was being lazy with my gears and setting my speed into the S-bend, which wasn’t helping, but I wasn’t planning my line through well enough. With all that sorted now I know I can get it right on roads I don’t know, too.”

Mark says “David was using the same road position for both parts of the S-bend, and being too lazy with his gears. Once we’d sorted those two things the transformation was massive. He was much faster through the S-bend afterwards, and with far more control. He felt the benefit immediately.”
