"At 68 I've never ridden better. Six years with Simon changed not just my cycling, but my life."

Read More

Six years ago I made a phone call that changed not only my cycling but my life — to Simon Kessler. Since day one he's kept me accountable and ramped up my training so I saw improvement fast. As a former pro and experienced coach, he takes the time to get to know each client and builds a program around them. Because of my time with Simon I can compete with much younger riders — at 68 I've never ridden better. The camps and trips to the Tour de France and Mallorca created a lifetime of memories and friendships. Do yourself and your cycling a huge favor and start what I promise will be an awesome journey.

"I'm in the best shape of my life. The structure and accountability work.. I still surprise myself."

Read More

Back in my 30s and 40s I raced road and MTB, then took a 12-year break before cycling reentered my life in 2016. After meeting Simon I decided to go for it. Nothing is easy, but structure and accountability work — the training is specific and prepares you for your goals, and I still surprise myself. Simon was born to coach: encouraging, thorough, a great listener, and still a top-level competitor himself. I'm in the best shape of my life. If you want to take the next step in your cycling, Simon is the coach to work with.

"Simon helped me go from racing locally to the international level in a very short time."

Read More

Simon and I have worked together since I was 14. Over the past five years he's guided my training so I went from racing at a local level to the international level in a very short span of time. The pressure of becoming a professional isn't easy, but Simon helped me understand the mental side of cycling — and of life. Learning how powerful your mindset can be toward races, training, and setbacks has let me approach everything with a strong mind, which is ultimately the key to success.

About Simon

Coaching built on experience.

I'm a former professional cyclist with a 25+ year track record coaching riders at every level — from World Tour pros to dedicated age-group athletes chasing their best season yet. My job is simple: help you get stronger, ride faster, and keep doing it for years to come.

Over the years I've coached national champions, guided juniors into professional contracts, and helped riders in their 60s and 70s reach the best form of their lives. I still race myself, so I stay close to how training and the sport actually evolve. And as much as I coach the numbers, I coach the mental side — because how you handle pressure and setbacks is what separates a good season from a breakthrough one.
