Crowie

Got to say your ‘follow up' and customer service is very impressive….no wonder the business is booming – well done.

Am happy to remain an advocate of the ergo's and I know Ben will too…we've got a lot out of them and am sure the rest of the boys in our group will be back here and there (especially during the colder months when the weather is
crap)

Cheers

"Ridewiser Ergo really works!!"

It gave me the ability to recover from mistakenly sprinting too early & blowing up, but still regaining the wheel, then surging again mid-sprint, jumping into a passing 'winning train' of riders - and WIN!!

I have no doubt that without the Ridewiser Ergo training, I would not have recovered that first instance, let alone gone on to attack again and win!!”

That's great Simon

Very good transference of ERGO POWER to real world cycling, especially at that level when every centimeter counts! Fitness, power, recovery, repeats - all in the bag! ; )

Excellent stuff
Thank you

...with a weekly experience on the Ridewiser Ergos, suddenly riding your
bike becomes easier than the indoor training sessions.

I think ergo training is actually better than road training for my cycling
fitness!

Great work Benny!
You've certainly got some history on these Ridewiser Ergo bikes to know what you're talking about. Best wishes for a great ride in Hawaii!

Hi Rob, Leanne and Team

I can't thankyou enough for putting on an absolutely awesome day on Saturday, I had a total blast, as did everyone on the ride.

You guys run a very efficient a slick operation and the day could not have been any better.
Amazing conditions, a great bunch of fit, strong riders, no incident's, great camaraderie and a record to boot!
I have not stopped smiling and just wanted to pass on my sincere appreciation for putting it on.
What a day!
Can't wait to see the photo's.
Mark me down for number 3 in 2015…
Hope to see you again soon.
Cheers

Thanks very much Ben
Great to see you riding the strongest yet in 2014 that I've seen of you over the last 5 years!
Really glad you enjoyed the journey thus far after inviting so many of your friends along to visit our services too.
What an ambassador!

Thanks so much Ridewiser for my Wednesday night ‘strength' cycling training on the Ridewiser Ergo sessions,
I knocked 2mins 14secs off my P.B. running time in the recent Melbourne Marathon 2014 – wow!

Amazing!!!

Thanks very much Carolyn, that really is an effort using the leg power training in transference to running - a lot of people are doing that the other way around (i.e. using running training to ride faster!) so GOOD FOR YOU AND US TOO!

What I have discovered through the whole process of training with Ridewiser Ergo programs is that I am so wedded to the Ridewiser 'Training Pyramid' concept now that any other data just seems to cloud the picture.
You have really taught me well.
I could feel when I was over-training and found balancing this out with more riding at lower intensity solved the problem.
I love the clarity of your Ridewiser training methodology, especially at my level of interpretation, and can see that the 'balanced man' approach is helping me become a much better rider.

Goodness me that is fantastic AJ, you really know HOW IT WORKS now - what a learning curve over the last 2 years you've had. You sound like one of our instructors! With that approach, you better get ready to GO A LOT FASTER, SOONER then ...

You may not know it but you, Monty, Mary, Liz, Leanne and Lockie have provided a fantastic platform for me (and many others I am sure) to launch into a life changing experience.
Building strength, speed and pushing the limits physically certainly becomes addictive and has a positive effect on ones vision and view of the world.
I just wanted to share this with you as people may not take time to tell you these important milestones.
Rather than call or make a passing comment I thought it would be more sincere coming in written words.
It may not be about the bike, but it certainly includes the bike...

You're right Raph, it's very nice of you to say so in a review and written down than just in passing the front desk. And it's a superb thing you have had more than just a physical experience here - that's the whole idea behind RIDE + WISER so at the moment, I'm thinking pretty much that... YOU'RE THE MAN!

Loved Leah's session, she's fantastic! You're lucky to have her on the team.
Was very satisfied with the session.
Good, solid and measured peak.

Pushed to a level that I'd be keen to improve on, but didn't have to scream and cry (which I'm not sure is what I'm after anyway).

We were given several opportunities to tweak our effort and make it as hard as we wanted.

Thanks very much for the opportunity to train with you again, love it!

That's such useful feedback, Gus!

We are always pleased to see you - one of the nicest blokes in the bike scene, everyone keeps telling me so. Maybe I should leave a review on you somewhere too!

Hi Rob,

Some feedback for you after my bike-fit consultation with Ridewiser today. Thus far:

1. The lower back pain I was experiencing has been significantly reduced,
2. I am no longer favouring one side of the seat. I am now sitting square throughout the ride,
3. I found hill climbing easier, and
4. I am more stable on the bike.

Great stuff! Thanks!

Yours,
Ricardo

Ridewiser 22 Oct 2014

Wow Ricardo,
I'm really glad you got the bike-fit done then : )

It just goes to show how many critical elements there are to getting the good ol basic as ever 'bike-riding activity' sorted out for total enjoyment, and position set-up is only just the beginning -

See you again soon
Regards
Rob

It was such a great experience riding in the AGF recently. But it wouldn't have been possible to complete the challenge as I did without the Ridewiser ergo training programs I've been doing. Along with my road riding, the ergo sessions have given me an amazing step up in my fitness levels since being back on my bike.

Thanks for all the encouragement.

What a great story
so many people are in that phase of coming back to fitness from travel, illness, winter-time or time off and you sound like you've nailed it - and then some.

Well done Trudes
See you again soon on-road or in the ERGOs!
Rob
