"It's as easy as riding a bike" - 7 words which prevent critical thinking.

So many people think that pedaling a bike is somehow natural. These are people who spent the first year of their life learning how to walk - why would pedaling be natural? If you believe that pedaling a bike is natural, this channel has nothing to offer you.  If you are willing to question everything you know about cycling, starting with the most basic skill of pushing down on the pedal, you might enjoy this channel.  I'm not here to convince you that my way is right, I'm here to get you to test everything you do.  I will give explanations of why things are, and I hope you view them with the same critical eye.

Coaching is about the learning process. Learning motor skills is a well documented process, and yet overlooked by cyclists.  If you can't understand the learning process, or you are unable to evaluate where you are within that process, nothing here will help you.
