OUR REVIEWS
“Pat is a good friend of mine who I did the Pass Porte du Soleil MTB event with in Switzerland a few times.
He’s also the mountain bike skills coach who I wish I had back when I was racing mtb competitively. Since I’ve known Pat I put my ego aside and started learning about proper mountain bike technique from square one.
Pat is one of the few talented riders who can actually break down these techniques and teach them properly from the ground up.”
“Pat has an amazing talent for analysing, distilling and translating the art of cycling…he is the best skills instructor I have seen, and trust me, I have seen a few! If you want to improve any aspect of your riding, do a session with Pat. He’ll have you flying in no time at all.”
“Pat is the bike skills whisperer!
We worked together closely to improve my dirt skills ahead of cyclocross World Cups and world championships. With his help I achieved the best cyclocross World Cup result and world ranking ever achieved by an Australian - no small feat for an ex roadie!”
“I often do one-on-one sessions with Pat to continuously improve my technical skills for World Tour racing. He has a magic way of breaking things down so that they become achievable.
We often work on race specific technique like riding cobbles, cornering, and hill climbing, but he also throws in some fun tricks along the way.
I always leave feeling confident in my abilities and having had a really fun ride.”
