"Susan Hefler is a fabulous coach. She has a keen instinct when it comes to bike racing and each individual’s strengths and needs. Her hands-on approach has helped me to not only meet, but to surpass my own goals by pushing me exactly the right amount and always being responsive to my questions and my fears about racing and training. Although I don’t really want to share her with the rest of the world, I do recommend her wholeheartedly to anyone wishing to excel in leaps and bounds in cycling or any other sport."
