Level One NICA coaching complete, let's see how the season rolls

Just finished my courses for a Level One Mountain Bike coach over the weekend.  This will be the second year in helping my son and his team.  I am optimistic as to how the season will go with stay in place and other restrictions due to COVID-19.  I myself have been out on the mountain bike trail getting some much needed mental and physical miles in.  I have even done a few virtual challenges/races.  My son’s season is five races, spread out over every other weekend staring in September.  It is fun to get out and practice with the team and help them achieve their goals. It is also fun to travel around getting to ride other courses around the state. 

Moved up to Level 2 NICA Coaching

Have fun keeping active with my son on his mountain bike team, school club.  I applied and have moved up to level two as a NICA coach. Taking a first aid and CPR class along with some other courses online. 

This weekend we head out of town again for the second of five races on the season. The weather will be cooler up north again, this time in Prescott. I see him getting stronger on the bike, even though he is really not a fan of hills. Then again who is? 

I ordered a new rear wheel cassette I'll install either before we leave on the two hour drive, or set up a little shop inside the hotel room and get his bike prepped for Saturday's race.
