COACHING PHILOSOPHY

MY APPROACH TO COACHING.

I believe bikes should be fun! Riding a bike can feel challenging, can push you, and can feel hard, but bikes should bring joy. I'm particularly passionate about supporting WTFNB (women, trans, femme, and nonbinary) cyclists and want to see more of us out riding and racing! I really enjoy coaching because of the partnership and connection I'm able to develop with athletes. I aim to use the incredible wealth of science and data we have to create a robust foundation and to then listen carefully to figure out how it applies to each unique athlete's goals and riding style. I try to offer my athletes an additional perspective, to help them figure out when to push hard and when to ease off, to be a sounding board, and to provide regular feedback. Overall, I love seeing athletes succeed at whatever their goals are, whether that's racing, hanging on to the group ride, completing a big adventure, staying fit, or anything else they want to accomplish on their bike!

THE FULL STORY

ABOUT ME AS A COACH.

I started cycling as a way to explore, test my limits, get out of my comfort zone, and pedal my way to a good coffee and pastry shop. I spent several years as a daily bike commuter before getting into longer riding and racing in my 30s. After several years of gravel and cyclocross racing, I've expanded my riding to include more mountain biking. I'm especially enjoying riding and racing cross country and enduro, and have started doing more park riding too! I love continuing to develop my skills and trying new things. I wax my chain and have raced with TT bars, but I also believe a little glitter and a tutu give you an extra five watts.

When I'm not on my bike, you can usually find me reading, baking, or watching a good movie with my partner.

IN THEIR WORDS

ATHLETES ON COACH TINA

I appreciate having Tina as coach. She understands my goals, helps me balance training with a busy life and continues to challenge me as a cyclist. I appreciate that she reviews and comments on my workouts in a timely manner and makes adjustments for upcoming workouts if needed. I appreciate Tina's positive approach and constructive feedback. - Andrea T.

Tina is great! I appreciate her timely engagement, deep knowledge and positive attitude. - Jason R.

I have been so impressed with Tina’s timely responses and adjustments. I trust that within my limitations she will help move me toward my goals. She did a great job of helping to manage my training during traveling until I was in my third week of 14 hour days and 5 hour nights and I fell apart. I totally believe she will help me build from here. - Jane F.

I love being part of BaseCamp and grateful to be working with Tina. - Tracy S

Tina is the best, so motivating. The best thing since sliced bread. - Steven W
