Krista's a great teacher! - Leslie C.   4/2016

 

Krista was fantastic with our beginner’s group! She made everyone feel welcome and included regardless of skill level.  She provided tons of helpful tips throughout our ride as we stopped to session along the way. It is amazing how much better I can climb after Krista’s clinic!  I highly recommend her to anyone looking to increase his or her skills. Cindi K.    6/2016

 

 Krista is a great ride coach especially those wary of technical trails. She breaks down the mechanics to educate and guide her students in thoughtful, friendly and patient steps. Krista shares her ever-expanding knowledge and enthusiasm for bikes, trails and gear with all levels of riders. I love the fun, non-competitive, welcoming vibe every time we ride together. It always ends with a perma-grin! Anna L. 6/2016

 

 June 7, 2016   I’ve had the good fortune of having private lessons with Krista Gray and can honestly say it has changed my riding skills.  MTB riding is not something you want to start out with bad habits and then painfully retrain your technique.  I had the bike, the gear, but not the skills.  I would watch women on their mountain bikes with such envy and wondered how do you learn that?   I often questioned myself whether I would be good enough, strong enough, fast enough, and coordinated enough?  After a few lessons with Krista and riding with her on group rides, I can honestly say, I have become a confident rider.  Krista teaches you the very basics and builds from that.  She doesn’t make you feel all those negative things you think about in your head when it comes to riding.  Krista builds confidence, coordination, skill, technique and most of all, makes you excited about MTB riding.  

At the end of each lesson, I felt much more confident and in control of my bike.  I now happily shred the trails and hear Krista’s words reminding me of the proper techniques.  Her lessons work, and worth the time and money!  No woman should head out on the trail without having a private lesson with Krista.  Thank you for being part of making my dream come true!  See you on the trails…

I attended the beginner/advanced beginner clinic coached by Krista Gray last week,

and as a still fairly new mountain biker what an absolutely perfect, important, fun and low

key way to address all the basic skills

and safety needs that I had! A great foundation to take my riding and skills to the next level. Highly recommend to anyone new to the sport who'd like to master their fundamentals! 

 

All the best,

Kristi G.

I enjoyed the skills class very much. The teaching was supportive and fit my level of expertise.  I would definitely recommend it for anyone wanting to  improve on their mountain biking skills and confidence.

Are you considering jumping on the trail with Krista as your coach? Great idea! 

Krista is a truly attentive, kind and thoughtful coach, that offers both technical skills training, and the emotional support you may need to get out of your own way—so that you can just have some fun riding your bike!  

I recently purchased a new adventure bike (YEAH!), and along with my excitement to explore new trails and places, I quickly learned that I was holding on to some old fears about riding safely. And these fears were getting in the way of feeling joyful and confident out on the trails. 

Thankfully, I was introduced to Krista, and I quickly signed up for a 1:1 training session!  Krista took the time to really understand my goals and fears about riding. Next, she introduced me to very important foundational skills, which I practiced between sessions. With every success, I became more confident in my riding abilities, and more willing to take on new challenges. Just this week, I rode up and down a hill that from a distance, seemed like a VERY steep, rutted hill, full of obstacles, that “other people ride.” With Krista’s support, and coaching, I climbed (and descended this hill) with some laughs, and a huge smile! It was exhilarating!! 

Thank you, Krista! I am looking forward to more sessions with you, as I continue this cycling journey!
