Captains

Who is a captain?
Captains take it upon themselves to motivate and initiate newbies into the sport of biking and the challenge of fund-raising. From a training perspective, captain is a liaison between the coach and the biker. Captains help the coaches identify bikers who need immediate attention while keeping track of each of their mentees training schedule and biking pace(s). From a fund-raising perspective, the captain provides support and fund-raising resources to his/her mentees.

How does a Captain benefit?
A captain gets an insight into the art of motivation and teaching. As many previous captains testify, it is fun to introduce a person to biking and help them avoid the pitfalls that a beginner would typically face. The joy and satisfaction is in seeing all of your mentees succeed by completing a ride and also raising funds for a great cause.
