    Good looking boy. I coached my son’s basketball team for a couple years and taught my son and daughter rock climbing. It’s always a complicated line to walk coaching as a parent.

    • @ChrisHornerCycling
      @ChrisHornerCycling  5 дней назад +1

      That was my biggest concern/worry with Garrett. Could Garrett handle the bike. He had zero time with a big group ride before this trip but he has been on the dirt bike track often which I thought (hoped) would translate over some to the bicycle and he had been training with me thru out the six weeks so I knew he could go straight with no problems but what I didn’t know was if he could see and predict dangers ahead. Along with that I took him often on the this same loop which I knew would help Garrett as I explained how the ride would go alone each section of the course way before we did Swami’s. 🤔👊

      Nothing to do with snobbery, it's just unlikely to be inefficient or unnecessary and in a drop group ride, losing 2-3 secs messing with gears just means you'll tire yourself out catching up. Shifting down at the back, with the range 11-12s affords is more than enough.
