• "The content of the course, the instruction and the riding were all great. Northampton was a very pleasant surprise to me, with its restaurants and charm. However, the overall superb quality of the experience was enhanced by two very special people. Thanks to both Elaine and you for making the three days so memorable."

• "I need to tell you I have finished two (miles not metric) centuries since camp and am signed up for my third this season on Sunday. Part of how I finally achieved my long time goal of a century, since I had not been able to go more than 70-80 miles prior to camp, is the skill set and confidence that I know what I'm doing-- thanks to you! I smoke everybody as much as a 120 pounder can on the downhills!!

  I know finishing feeling good--meaning I can go harder next time--and my surprisingly fast times (and even short rides compared to last season) are to your credit! It's not just the downhill skills, though that's where I see the most improvement, but overall that I am a better cyclist. I attack the road itself now; it's like I am seeing it differently because I know what to look for and how to take it on for my mind and body ( repeat after me....I LOVE uphills! I LOVE uphills! damn it works....) and I'm not just peddling along hoping I'm going faster. I can't wait to see how much more I improve before the Wisconsin snows end my cycling season!

  Thanks for all the success I've experienced since camp....wow!"
