September absolutely flew-by here at Big Wheel Coaching. Besides being busy creating training plans and working with our Athletes toward their individual goals, we were able to spend some quality-time with a large portion of our BWC Athlete crew at the Mammoth Gran Fondo! But before we get to the highlights from Mammoth, check out these Fall events & come ride with us!  We are excited to have the opportunity to ride alongside many of our Gran Fondo-focused Athletes at the Westlake Village Century!

After the ride we had two tables full of Athletes enjoying the post-ride festivities and sharing stories about their 70 and 100-mile adventures in the Eastern Sierras. As in 2016, we kicked off the weekend with our Mammoth Gran Fondo Pre-Ride that helped riders adapt to the high-altitude conditions and sat on a pre-Fondo discussion panel organized to help participants, of all abilities, maximize their experience in Mammoth! Some might say it’s too early to say, but we are already excited about the 2018 Mammoth Gran Fondo! If you haven’t already, check out their website (here) and consider adding it to your calendar, you won’t be disappointed.  Coach Brian was proud to be with fellow panelists for night-one of the FuelTalk Human Performance Summit in Las Vegas. Photo Credit: Joy McCulloch
