Athlete testimonials

_edited.jpg
I started working with VDB cycling after a crash took me off the bike for several weeks. Coach Johan helped me get back in shape and into pre-accident form in less than 8 weeks. The personalized coaching and training plan kept me motivated, set clear goals for each week, and gave me the confidence I needed to get back on the road. I would not have been able to progress so quickly without the help from Coach Johan.
