Great experience
Working with Matt was a great experience. He was always available, attentive, and genuinely passionate about helping me improve. What impressed me most was his ability to really understand me as an athlete—identifying weaknesses, building on strengths, and guiding me with a clear plan. Matt’s coaching gave me valuable skills on the bike, from reading terrain to refining race tactics, and he also worked with me in person, which made a huge difference. Beyond cycling, he provided additional support that helped me grow both as an athlete and as a person. Whether you’re riding for fun or chasing podiums, Matt has the knowledge and dedication to help you achieve your goals!
My whole life feels rejuvenated
I’ve had a few coaches through my cycling career some I’ve liked others just didn’t jive but since I’ve started working with Matt I feel like not only my cycling but my whole life feels rejuvenated. Matt is super approachable and his wholistic coaching approach has made me better both on and off the bike giving me a newfound love for cycling.
Unique insight into the challenges master's cyclists face
His expertise in nutrition, fueling, race strategy, and workout execution is top-notch. Matt is always available to answer my questions and help me maximize my training to get ready for race day. As a master's cyclist, he has a unique insight into the challenges master's cyclists face and has been able to help me work through injuries, build strength, and avoid training fatigue. If you want to up your game and reach your highest potential, Matt will get you there!
Significantly faster with better results shorter recovery time
I was a year into serious cycling and was coming off a less than impressive year or racing in 2024. With the coaching I was able to complete Unbound and finish every event I have done in 2025 significantly faster with better results shorter recovery time.
I am much happier on rides
I have learned skills and techniques I hadn’t ever contemplated. The strides I have made not only translate to me being a better cyclist but I find that I am much happier on rides. Thank you, Matt, for being available whether in one-on-one or group meetings or on the road to provide useful feedback, guidance and encouragement.
I have been able to see a significant improvement
I have been using Matt as my cycling coach for the past 6 months. I had previously been using other coaches. I am a 65+ athlete that was interested in improving on my climbing abilities as well as gaining some improvements to my overall power. Since working with Matt and using the workout plans he provides I have been able to see a significant improvement in these areas.
Exponential growth
My growth as a cyclist has been exponential since I began working with Matt. His communication, attention to detail, and commitment to mental fitness are top notch.
