Gary's program is unique and special.  He has the ability to guarantee that you will feel prepared at the start of your event. Cycling is as much a tactical and mental sport as an endurance one, and Gary's training will not only have you showing up stronger than ever before, the key is when you are at the line, you will also know that you are the strongest you have ever been.

Gary has developed a tailored program for me that has allowed me to be a mom and an athlete.  Unlike other training programs, Gary is accessible and always willing to provide detailed feedback and if needed, modifications.  Gary has a very hands on approach to his coaching methods.  He has tailored a training program for my specific goals throughout the season. His ability to adjust my schedule as goals change due to my family or work, or as he determines special attention is needed, has allowed me to maintain focus and continued improvement...which equals less stress as an athlete.  My workouts are custom-built for me and my success.  

Gary is a brilliant coach and mentor.  Whether you are an elite athlete or training for your first bike race, he is an asset to anyone's training plan."

"In an age where internet coaches are ubiquitous and faceless cut and paste training programs abound,  there is  a definite niche for well-qualified coaches who offer guidance with goal setting, create personalized training programs and deliver outstanding results. 

Gary Alexander's resume includes an academic background in sports science, competition at the highest levels in cycling and running as well as a successful coaching and bike fitting business. 

Common wisdom would have us believe that professional athletes are typically too selfish to make good coaches. Thank heavens for anomalies. Gary is an exceptional person, athlete, coach and listener. He will help you craft a set of attainable goals, derive a personalized training program specific to those objectives and will accompany you on your journey to the finish line. 

Some say that "in creating, the only hard part is to begin". I would recommend that you begin your journey by contacting Gary. "

"Gary Alexander was recommended to me by a friend many years ago for my own bike fitting. I was so impressed that I engaged Gary to be the "go-to" bike fitter for my Princesses. Many of theses riders have been through Gary's bike fitting and have raved about the attention they received and the detail with which Gary performed his magic. All riders are now cycling more comfortably, with greater efficiency and with more confidence because of Gary's work. I will recommend him every time."

"I am exceptionally busy managing work life, family and other interests and then trying to compete in a major cycling event or two each year, therefore I needed  a coach that was flexible but at the same time extremely competent and committed.  Gary has a great perspective on this and an absolute pleasure to work with. He is so humble and personal, considering how knowledgeable and successful he has been in cycling. "

"I have been an avid road cyclist for many years. I had been experiencing hip pain on the bike and my sister recommended that I see Gary. She has received a bike fit from Gary and was blown away by the difference it made in her bike performance. Gary's thorough assessment revealed that I was too scrunched up on the bike, my bike shoes needed shims for stability and my handle bar placement was too far forward. 

I had never felt confident standing up on the bike. Now I am standing up on the bike and transferring the power to the pedals. I also noticed on my first ride after the bike fit, my glut muscles are engaged to help me be a stronger rider. I now have better performance and less injuries. I highly recommend a bike fit with Gary."

Esther Oga

"Gary provided a comprehensive, personalized and highly educational bike fitting experience that included consideration for my body type, flexibility, riding experience, past injuries and my cycling goals.  With adjustments to my bike, the fit of my shoes and my cycling position, Gary managed to totally resolve a nagging discomfort that I was experiencing in one leg. What I appreciated most was Gary's relaxed approach to sharing his extensive knowledge of kinesiology, cycling mechanics and his experience as a competitive cyclist. I was encouraged to ask any and all questions, no matter how basic. Thanks Gary for making my rides even more fun!"

"Thank you so much for providing the excellent service. My bike is now a dream to ride! It has made the camp my best cycling experience.Thanks and I hope you have a great summer!"

"My trip with Ken and Gary to Mallorca  in 2016 was the most incredible riding I've ever done. I've ridden many multi-day and week long trips throughout Italy and North America but this is by far the most seamless and well organized trip. From the initial indication of interest to the final day of the trip, Gary and Ken were supportive and allowed it to be a true vacation. The hotels are beautiful and luxurious. The rides each day were varied, challenging and breathtaking. Also, the food and support along the rides were spectacular! It was incredible waking up, having a huge delicious breakfast, getting on the bike and just riding. I never worried about issues with my bike as their team took care of everything. It was a treat to ride gorgeous roads without issues of traffic or bad drivers.  I can't wait to come back and ride the best roads!"
