Meet Your 2012 MVP Coaches: Joan Grant Dietchman

The Maximum Velocity Program officially kicks off Tuesday April 3, 2012, and we want to introduce the AMAZING coaches we've got for this year's program. Their experience ranges from UCI racing in Europe to the LiveStrong Challenge Century and everything in between.



Next up is 2011 Race Across the West Women's Category Winner and 2012 Race Across America rider Joan Grant Dietchman.

1) Years Riding?

11

2) Why MVP?
Because after 10 years of riding I'd never had any formal cycling training and wanted a structured workout to gain skills and become a better rider.

3) Thing you are looking forward to the most?
Crushing Bob Corman in a sprint! ;)

4) Favorite thing about riding?
Riding in beautiful places and soaking up the scenery!

5) Favorite type of event?

I'm racing across the country in June, so the answer better be "ultra-endurance", otherwise I've made a big mistake and signed up for the wrong event!! ;)
