Every now and then we'll do grass rides where we work on cornering skills. We hit the corners hard and fast, and since you're on grass, nine out of ten times you'll go down. You learn how to tumble and how to prepare for a fall.

People are usually either really serious or they decide to pull out. The rest of us give up every weekend from early February until late April spending every weekend racing at a different college. It's hard to get out of bed sometimes.

We'd all really like to be on a varsity cycling team, but even with that type of success, the school hasn't been interested.

Our main lesson is all about team work. The overall idea is to give kids a fun and safe environment, so they can use their bodies and their minds, instead of watching TV.

It's a great opportunity to work with the children and keep them busy during the break. They can do a variety of activities.

Some schools can use their hallways for sprints, but at our place, it doesn't work. The minute you lose your track, you have to get creative.
