Testimonials

"Thanks so much for the clinic yesterday! I was so glad I attended, I learned a lot and am looking forward to putting my new-found strategy knowledge to use. As a beginner cyclist, you hear about strategy and it can be intimidating. This clinic was inspiring and a great mental boost. It is great knowing that I can go out there knowing what to expect and then some.
Thank you!!"

Project 24.2 Initial Review: JBV Coaching by Tom Jones

"As a teammate and mentor for over 3 years, Tom has been integral in my success as a bike racer.  His training and racing knowledge, leadership, and selflessness have helped me develop from a Cat 3 barely breaking the top ten, to earning consistent podium spots in the 1/2s within one year.  I have also benefited from his bike fitting expertise, as he has greatly improved my TT position.  Tom has a great head for the sport of cycling.  He is a natural at preparing for and reading races.  He is an excellent problem-solver when doing bike fits and fixing bikes.  In addition, Tom’s humor and genuine kindness make him enjoyable to be around and provide a fun and comfortable coach-athlete relationship."
