 As coach of the FLCC I'd like to share some cycling and training lore rmore effectively than we have done in the past. I propose regular "events" at my home/shop for a Sunday afternoon each month through the winter to

• watch racing videos as Stephen Roche explains what's happening, while we carboload for the coming season.
• conduct maintenance and repair sessions so our bikes will function next season. (or at least we'll know why they're not functioning when that occurs in the middle of nowhere)
• I can even talk about physiology of training and how you can train effectively - especially using heart monitors that can be securely mounted to the bicycle.
• We can snowshoe or x-c ski on my trails and actually get some exercise before sweating out the previous evening's alcohol in the sauna.

The first of these sessions was held on December 3 before a meeting of the club's board. We got a lot of video watching done and a bit of discussion of what would be best to do on future occasions. The conclusion: Decide what you would like to get out of the session, make it as specific as possible. We can videotape your form on a wind trainer, disassemble and assemble your bike, - you decide.

 The next clinic/meetings will be on January 14 and February 4.
