JSTS, in partnership with our Platinum Sponsor B3 Bicycles, is hosting a course called "It's Not About The Bike. (It's About You!)"".
"It's Not About The Bike. (It's About You!)"
How To Take Care of Yourself So You Can Ride Longer, Stronger, Comfortabler, and Oftener!
A few months ago B3 Bikes conducted a clinic on basic bike maintenance. Now they are following it up with a clinic on basic human maintenance, for people who ride bikes. Like it says in the title, this one is all about how to take care of yourself, so that you can ride longer, stronger, comfortable, and oftener --and without pain (wow, how about that?!).
Did you know that riding a bike doesn't have to make your back hurt? Did you know that numb wrists, hands, and feet are not as essential to riding a bike as, say, wearing a helmet and remembering your water bottle? Did you know that the person who originally said 'Cycling is suffering' probably wasn't referring to the posterior sensations that might have one believing that the design of their saddle was inspired by medieval torture devices that have long since been outlawed by the Geneva Convention? Did you also know that that same 'Cycling Is Suffering' guy might have actually been wrong, so long as you do cycling right?
That's the goal of this clinic: Taking all the unnecessary forms of suffering, and even just the minor niggles, irritations, annoyances, itches, and discomforts, out of cycling.
Master Fitter Jarrad McClary (after performing over a thousand bike fits and helping several athletes reach some very important podiums, he's earned the capitalization on the words 'Master Fitter') of B3 Bikes will be discussing and demonstrating the most important exercises, stretches, and massages to help achieve a completely comfortable experience on your bike. He will also walk us through the process of an in-depth bike fit, showing us the differences between what a good fit looks and feels like vs what a bad fit looks and feels like.
This event will begin precisely at 4:45 o'clock on Monday, October 16th, and will end at 6:45.
There is a lot to cover, so please arrive early so that we can cover it all...in comfort.
After the event, attendees will have the opportunity to schedule a personal bike fit with Jarrad at a special discounted rate.
Space is limited to 25 people, so please reserve your slot as soon as possible. In case of significant demand past the 25 person limit, B3 Bikes will host a similar clinic again in the near future.
B3 Bikes is located at 6527 Route 9 North in Howell, NJ. They're open six days a week, and are closed on Saturday.
Hope to see you there --and until then, may all of your cycling only contain the fun kind of suffering.
