I had best time of my life on a mountain bike at your camp, and look forward to doing another one next spring.
Chris Cornelison
The results are starting to trickle in as I have the time to ride some of my local rides that I track my times on. I’m astonished!
Mark ForgyCat 1 XC Racer
I learned more today than in the last 10-11 years of just riding” (in a rushed 3.5 hour lesson, BetterRide camps are 19-22 hours over 3 days!)
Ross SchnellSinglespeed World Champion
I learned more in this camp than in my entire career so far.
Andrew PierceUS Team member 2006, Go-ride Factory Team
Wow, after years of racing professionally in the US and on the World Cup you really improved my understanding of cornering. I am cornering faster and with more confidence.

Your instruction, professsionalism and emails went above and beyond all expectations.

Just finished a 3 day camp in San Diego with Chip. Absolutely the best coaching\instruction I’ve ever had.
