Dave has just returned from one of the best ever Training Camp “one to one’s” he has ever been on .. He has done a lot of these “special” one to one Camps now, both over here in GB from the odd weekend to a full week and the athletes seem to get much more benefit from these more intimate one to one sessions than any other form of Training Camp … They can book Dave for a weekend here or in a place they know on the Continent , or a place Dave has already been to …
DAVE AT SKI RESORT VAL D’ISERE …
The latest of these Camps was with Grahame Coleman who took Dave to Chambery in preparation for his attempt on la Marmotte in a few weeks.. he just wanted to do some Pass storming and learn the art of climbing and descending and he (and Dave) had a ball.. They climbed the Madaleine, the Telegraph, The Galibier, the Col d’Iseran and the Col de Granier in a 5 day intense Camp all based from Chambery and staying in the one hotel and just driving to the bottom of each climb each morning and spending the day climbing and descending and then having a de-brief after the ride each day along with other hints and tips on riding the Marmotte .. A Sportive Dave has ridden and won his age standard both times he rode it, so has the experience to give the best advice possible … Grahame was over the moon with the Camp and thought it worth every penny it cost him.
