LEADout

Testimonials:
Jacques Janse van Rensburg(Team MTN Qhubeka):
Who has had the most influence on your cycling career and why?
Probably Barry Austin and Doug Ryder. Barry is the guy that built me up. In 2011 I was in a bad spot and was on a team that didn’t fulfil it’s promises. Doug threw me a lifeline and believed in me and now I’m on a professional team.

Louis Meintjes(Team MTN Qhubeka):
Who has had the most influence on your cycling career and why?
Barry Austin, he just taught me and helped me with a lot of things in my cycling thus far.

Johann van Zyl(Team MTN Qhubeka):
Who has had the most influence on your cycling career and why?
This is really a tough one to answer as there’s a long list of people who have helped me in my career. My father is definitely right at the top, driving me to and from races from the age of 10. Always making sure I have good equipment. In a way without adding any pressure, he always put my needs firsts and his second. My whole family has been great support all these years. Barry Austin also gets a special mention as I’ve learnt so much from him when I trained with him for 5 years and even now as a mentor. He’s always there to give advice and help out.

Peter and Martin Velits(Quickstep Pro Cycling & BMC Pro Cycling):
Planned and organized training from LEADout Cycling, the first stepping stone to a successful career.

Reinardt Janse van Rensburg(Giant/Shimano):
ACI academy(now LEADout) provided me with the platform to first experience cycling in Europe. I believe this experience was imperative to my development as a professional cyclist, as I learned a lot about the sport, the level of European cycling and also about using a professional, but realistic approach to improve as a cyclist.

Nolan Hoffman(Team Abantu):
Only with coaching one can achieve greatness in sport. With LEADout Cycling you get an advisor too, someone to guide and support you on all bases.

HB Kruger(Bonitas Pro Cycling):
Since I started riding in the Elite/U23 category, I struggled gaining the competitive edge over my opponents. Riding with heart rate and power was easy but analyzing it and trying to understand the numbers with no additional knowledge about training other than going flatbox or easy or medium pace was not giving me the little extra needed to win. Structure was brought into my training start of 2012 and the results over the past 3 years have proven to be a good recipe that I won’t change unless needs be. The progress is not just helping my career at becoming a professional cyclist, but also gives me that sense of hope that it is possible to become the best at what I love.
The LEADout Cycling training programs have helped me reached the form I need at most races that I needed it most to get the results I was looking for. The steady progress is shining through and numbers keeps going up.
