Bell Lap Coaching

Working with Steve is great.  He is a master at balancing 'real world' responsibilities with both the mental and physical demands of racing. He's taken everything I've thrown at him, every curve ball, and incorporated it in a way that has made me better.  This is my 9th season of racing, and after working with Steve for 2 years now, I am racing faster and riding stronger than I ever have!

Making my World Cup debut in 2008, I had little anxiety about my fitness due to my confidence in and great communication with Bell Lap Coaching.  Steve Weller has worked with me to figure out the most effective manner of training, while balancing recovery and mental health with a workload on the bike that continues to be manageable with whatever extra-athletic pursuits I’m taking on.

From Steve’s availability, even while in different time zones, to always knowing why I’m benefiting from certain workouts, I am always impressed with his level of professionalism and attention to detail.  I look forward to continuing a successful cycling career with Bell Lap Coaching.

It is really challenging for me to describe how much I appreciate having Steve as my coach. I truly believe that if it hadn't been for Steve, I wouldn't have seen the success I have on the bike. Steve took me from a weekend warrior to an elite racer. When I called Steve and told him I wanted to race on the road in Belgium for a summer, he didn't hesitate. He worked out a solid plan that got me to a point where I could race in the European peloton. When I told Steve that I wanted to race cyclo-cross in Belgium, he did it again. He put together a plan of training and racing that gave me the skills and confidence to race with a truly elite field of women. Last year when I told Steve I wanted to race at the Cyclo-Cross World Championships, he responded the same way. All this to say that without Steve's knowledge, support, and experience, I definitely wouldn't be the bike racer I am today and would not even dream of setting such high goals for myself.
