Gstaad

Cycling coach in Gstaad

Gstaad sits at 1,050 metres in the Saanenland, a broad green valley of wooden chalets where building regulations have kept everything low and traditional. The skiing spreads across several linked areas rather than one mountain, which makes it forgiving terrain and a good place to learn.

Summer is the quiet secret: high pastures, long valley walks, and one of the best road cycling networks in the Bernese Oberland. The village is expensive and the coaching is not — the mountain does not charge extra.

Cycling

This is climbing country, so that is what we coach

Everything here goes up. The vineyard roads of La Côte, the Jura passes, the Alpine cols within an hour of the lake — which means most sessions end up being about climbing well rather than riding fast on the flat. Cadence, pacing a long ascent, when to stand, and how to arrive at the top with something left.

Position and equipment

A session often starts with twenty minutes on your position, because most amateur riders are fighting their bike rather than riding it. Bring your own bike — coaching on an unfamiliar one wastes half the value. Your coach brings nothing you need except judgement.

Common questions

How fit do I need to be?

Your coach rides at your pace. A session is not a group ride with someone stronger than you, and pretending otherwise helps nobody.

Can you help me prepare for a sportive?

Yes, and it is a common reason people book. Tell us the event and the date and the session gets built backwards from it.

What if the weather is bad?

Light rain, we ride. Ice, storms or genuinely dangerous conditions, your coach contacts you and we move the session at no cost.
