Cyclocross Racing

Entering a cyclocross race well prepared and with efficient running, dismounting and remounting skills are the keys to successful competition in this demanding sport.

Like all Wenzel Coaching programs, cyclocross racing programs can be divided into three levels.

Individual
Semi-Custom
Custom
Consultation by the hour is also available
 

You can choose to make cyclocross your only main season, your peak season of a fall and spring/summer season, or just a part of your fall and winter training. All cyclocross racing programs set out day by day what to do to reach your potential and suggest minimum and maximum ride times in order for you to make the most of your training time.

All cross programs combine cyclocross and road training, including endurance rides, interval training, racing as training and specific skill training, including climbing, descending, dismounts, run-ups, remounts, sprinting, spinning and big gear training in addition to other exercises. Your coach will help you plan your season, work with you on the strengths and areas needing improvements and help you analyze your racing. See the cyclocross-specific program descriptions below.
