Local women’s cycling teams will offer a coached clinic for women thinking about road racing who want to learn – or improve on – the necessary skills to race effectively and safely. No previous race experience is needed! The clinic will be led by Marsa Daniel of MD Endurance Coaching, and she has much to offer to new racers as well as experienced Cat 4 and Cat 3 women.
