Maybe it will help me improve my results in the Winter Series this year. I'm getting tired of eating Winston's dust!

I could do that right now. Just ride behind me and do the exact opposite of everything I'm doing!

He responded fairly quickly to my email I sent him (from my original post, which is an exact copy and paste of his post on MTBR).

family thing) so I'm kinda the guy that goes out and
teaches what he does in other parts of the country."

Hmmmm, was Zach at the clinic that Lee did for Incycle? Has anyone asked Jason?

Checked out Leelikesbikes.com and found out that Zach is a pro racer that is coached by Lee and now co-teaches at his clinics. http://www.leelikesbikes.com/success...athrop-co.html

Yeah, Zach is basically Lee's apprentice in teaching. He was not at Lee's clinic he did for Incycle, but I got a chance to meet him in CO this past summer. He's a cool guy, has been learning from Lee for the last two years, and his results show it.

that is a lot of money (for two of us to attend) to not be learning from the man himself.
Weird also, cause his original post says they will both be out there.

I also thought Lee would be there. I had communicated with him a while back about doing a one day clinic. He said he travelled to California often and would do it. Would be for all day till we dropped $550 for the clinic and $500 travel expences for up to 6 people.
I'll call Zach today to get the 411.

Hey guys, Zach here. Just got off the phone with "sharky" and she told me you guys had some questions that I can hopefully clear up. Due to the number of people who are interested in Lee's coaching, we (Lee and I) have discussed and are putting into action a way for his knowledge to be taught but that doesn't require Lee to be away from home for the entire year. Make sense? If you want to check with him as well and get a personal recomendation from lee his email is lee@leelikesbikes.com.
Thanks guys and I'm looking forward to coming out! Let me know if I can answer anymore questions. zstyle_22@yahoo.com

After talking to Zach I feel pretty good about this class. He lives close to Lee and has been trained/coached by him for 2 years now. He's racing pro downhill doing very well. I have to assume Lee wouldn't want anyone representing his teaching and techniques without knowing they would represent well and be a worthy coach.
Forgot to mention if you sign up before November 1st you get $50 back for early registration so would come to $200.
Hope to see some of you there.

Hey guys I am indeed offering early registration, but I gave her a misprint of November 15th, it is actually November 1st. Sorry about the confusion! Let me know if I can answer any other questions. For those of you that have already payed, I can either mail you back the $50 or give it to you when I see you in December.
Thanks,

Zach

Zach still has spots open if you want to take advantage of the $50 discount offered by Nov. 1st? Will be $250 after that date.
