    I was looking for a spinning lesson to participate while i was visiting Dallas for work and I found Cycling Center Dallas. I had no bike with me, i didnot have spd shoes, i didn't even have a water bottle with me! Just my cycling clothing and that's it. Richard asked me a few questions to understand my fitness level and my cycling experience and immediately set me up on a bike! In 15min, all my metrics (HR, power zones, etc) were in his system, i had a bike that fit me well, water bottle and shoes! ...

    Tonight Richard led me through my first MPA test using the Xert software and training methods. I reached 785W on rollers. I might add that a year ago, I had never been near rollers! I've been one of Richard's clients for about 18 months and because of scheduling I can rarely get to the clinic. The online coaching works and Richard does everything to help you set up the proper equipment at home. When I started my FTP was 167. Thanks to CCD, it has increased to 239 and I have become more confident and even enjoy cycling more!

    I just finished the the third week of Performance Cycling classes. I've never had any type of coaching or engaged in a systematic training program. While I'm generally pretty fit and fairly strong, my biking technique really was awful. CCD has been an outstanding investment - my technique is improving, my speed and stamina are increasing rapidly and I generally feel better about my time on the bike. At Richard's recommendation, I got a real bike fit, and that too has been a blessing. I'm looking forward to continuing to improve! Thanks Richard and team.

    This is hands down the best cycling class (or, really, exercise class of any type) I have ever taken. Richard and Tracy and all of their coaches are very knowledgeable and really cool people. Every fitness level is welcome, and I enjoy the camaraderie of the class. I highly recommend it!
