From Matt McNamara:

I’m happy to announce that we’ve finally gotten around to making our clinic
schedule for the first half of the year. This year I dialed it down a bit from
previous seasons offering nly a couple of clinic options. For additional
information please drop me a line – info at sterlingspeed dot com. As always
FFBC has a 20% discount for any of the clinics below just choose the FFBC
option. Hope to see you at the races…

Interval Training 2.0 Webinar – Coming up this friday March 5th at noon, we’ll
take an in-depth look at intervals, and more specifically using a power meter to
pace, manage and analyze your interval workouts. Learn how to get more out of
your training and technology in this informative 60 minute course. Cost is
$24.99 and registration is available here.

Climbing & Descending – This is our baseline clinic. 3.5 hours of focused work
on the fundamentals of bike handling, especially in the vertical environment. We
start with some basics like braking and turning in a controlled environment,
then move to the hills for additional notes and practice on the soft art of
going (up and) downhill fast. This is the perfect course for new racers looking
to up their skills b/c these translate to racing very well indeed. The first one
is March 20th (second is May 8th)
Registration is $75 and the March 20th event can be found on sterlingwins.com!

Speed Camp – This is a Criterium focused course that covers some of the key
principals in both skills and tactics . We’ll work on cornering, positioning,
sprinting and some workouts that’ll help you better prepare for races. Close
quarters riding at race speeds is the goal of the clinic so come prepared to
RIDE FAST! Registration is $75 and the April 4th event can be found on
sterlingwins.com

*New* Race Camp –  This is our first time offering this series. Race Camp Wente (April 10th)
and Race Camp Pescadero (June 5th) are designed as a pre-race ride of the course with lots
of time and energy spent mastering the elements necessary to succeed on these
courses. We’ll typically do a couple of laps together and re-ride the crux
points like Haskins grade and the finish climb at Wente. We’ll discuss tactics
and race strategy, and cover some important metrics for each race including a
realistic estimate of the power requirements and training demands of the race.

many thanks
