Mark Dalrymple was part of the contingent from Cycling Fusion who helped our event be the success that it was. Over the weekend I had the pleasure of getting to know Mark and learn that he was the actual brains behind the creation of the Class Builder App + a world class photographer. I plan to display many more of Mark's photos like the pictures featured in the slider and this post. When he showed me this time-lapse video showing the Friday night ride setup I couldn't wait to share it to you 🙂
Master Instructor Tom Scotto lead his ICI/PRO Peloton through a series of “Towns” with the support of his fantastic band. I was a bit skeptical about how the band would interact with Tom and the class…they couldn't have worked together more seamlessly 🙂
Here are some pictures from the ride last night with many more to come.
Following the trend of all the other fitness conferences; we've decided not to kill a bunch of trees and end up throwing away piles of unused presenter's notes.
Instead we have all the available Presenter's notes and handouts online for you to print and bring to the conference, if you choose.
We're very excited to meet, ride, train and party with everyone coming to the conference… and I'm sure there will be a few hugs 🙂
If everything works as planned we will be displaying a continuous live feed video from the conference, instead of the normal home page. Our plan is to keep this feed as entertaining as possible and we will also be posting updates and pictures from the conference all weekend.
Please tune in for our FREE streaming presentation of the BIG ride featuring Cameron and Pam from STAGES Indoor Cycling / FreeMotion @ 4:30 Eastern Saturday or the recorded version. Information about it and the other sessions you can view online is here.
I know it's a little early to think about a warm vacation but I just had to post this. Instructor Brenda Moeske learned about Working Fitness Vacations on a Podcast. After talking to Amy last year at the conference Brenda scheduled her vacation to teach for the week at Couples Tower Isle.
She sent this quick email when she got back:
It turned out to be a fabulous week! I taught my last class (group fitness) class this morning. I did group fitness at 9 a.m. and spin at 5:00 p.m. I had some good classes! My participants said I was missing a great view!! They don't have us teach on Friday afternoons and of course Saturday's. What an amazing experience!! My husband has thanked me the entire trip and the hospitality has been wonderful!!! We have already been on the website planning our next one! Thanks again for letting us know about FitPro Travel!!!! See you in a week!
What she means by “See you in a week!” is that she will be at the conference again this year. Just look for the tan – healthy looking Instructor in the front row.
Amy and I have been to Couples Tower Isle a number of times and it's really a beautiful place. We have a whole website dedicated to helping you take a very low cost Working Fitness Vacation just like Brenda did last week. Go to workingfitnessvacation.comÂ
