“NEAR DEATH EXPERIENCE” 2012 JUNE 7-10 AT KIRKWOOD
Entering its 13th year, the NDE is the premiere camp to prepare riders for the Death Ride—or any long distance or climbing ride you have planned. Under the guidance of elite coach Rob Panzera from Cycle Camp San Diego, campers will be provided the knowledge and hands-on training necessary to prepare for an improved experience at the 2012 Death Ride.
Depending on ability and inclination, campers will have a chance to experience all passes in the Tour broken out among the 3-days of the camp—including a chance to climb 10,000 feet over two of the Death Ride passes in one day!
Each day, campers can expect on-the-road coaching, including cycling safety, bike positioning (as necessary), descending skills, climbing skills, nutrition tips, Death Ride insight and much more. In addition NDE 2012 Campers are guaranteed entry into the 2012 Death Ride!
Camp cost is just $549. For information or to register, visit us online at kirkwood.com/elevatedtraining or call today at 209.258.7285.
