Grit | Girona is…
Dave Smith, a former Olympic cycling coach for team GB. He has extensive coaching and riding experience in road, MTB and gravel riding. A resident of Girona, Dave as spent countless hours getting lost, dragging his bike through thorn jungles, avoiding dog attacks and falling in pig shit, so you don’t have to. Not much anyway.
A native of Ireland, he has extensive experience coaching and riding from New Zealand to Columbia. Dave has raced on road and mountain bike, and cycled across deserts and cities. His coaching clients have won world championships, world cups, Olympic medals, national championships and also seen lives transformed from sedentary office chumps to Ironman finishers. Whilst he’s not a guru, it’s not his first rodeo either and you’ll struggle to find a more qualified guide and coach in Girona.
In addition to helping you discover the incredible gravel and MTB riding in the Girona region, Dave is able to help you gain enhanced health and fitness prior to your trip to Girona through his coaching business. You are able to access his 30 years of world class coaching experience to help you make the most of your trip. If you believe that being leaner and faster is going to help you with the climbs and distances on your Girona adventure contact Dave through his Velocity and Vitality website.
Dave enjoys working with riders of all abilities and experience levels, and has been remote coaching riders all around the world since 1989.
