Skills, Drill & Tactics Talk

Hi all, here's a Skills, Drills & Tactics podcast as promised. You should be able to download it and listen to it via iTunes, Windows Media Player or, of course, your Verizon Wireless handheld device!

It's 39 minutes long and I covered the following:

1) Bike Handling Basics:
- Bike Fit
- Core Strength
- Flexibility
- Cadence/Efficiency

2) Basic Drills you can do by yourself to be a better bike handler

3) Race Tactics:
- The three C's you can study beforehand: Course, Competitors, Conditions.
- Tactic/Strategy when racing with strong "age groupers"
- Sprinting ('cause we all can't be like Fabian and just ride away when we need to)

Let me know what you think and if you have any questions or ideas for another podcast.
