Experience

Entraîneur et fondateur du club de vélo de montagne Cycle Outaouais, j’ai siégé sur le comité de développement technique à la Fédération des sports cyclistes du Québec dans les années 2000. J’ai été répondant régional pour la FQSC, entraîneur-chef lors de plusieurs Jeux du Québec et entraîneur accompagnateur pour divers projets avec l’équipe du Québec. J’ai également été instructeur de ski pendant une quinzaine d’années.

Maintenant retraité du service de sécurité incendie de la ville de Gatineau après 32 ans de carrière, j’ai occupé diverses fonctions, dont chef de division pour la division formation, et pour terminer, chef de division aux interventions.

To protect yourself from minor scrapes and injuries, Bikeskills recommends that you ALWAYS wear knee protection. Gloves, eyewear / goggles and elbow protection are also recommended, but not mandatory. Of course, a helmet is always essential, ideally a mountain bike specific helmet. A full-face helmet and chest protector for advanced and/or lift courses is also recommended, but not mandatory.

As the class will be held outdoors and we might not have access to indoor facilities, it is recommended that you check the mountain weather forecast and plan accordingly, as weather can change rapidly. It is recommended that each member of the group bring snacks and water to ensure they have enough energy to enjoy the class.

As we want to prepare you in advance for a great experience, here are some notes on safe mountain biking

  • Communicate your apprehensions, previous injuries and physical limitations to your coach.
  • Do not exceed your physical and technical limits.
  • All difficulties and modules are optional at all times. We can always reduce the physical and technical demands of the lesson.
  • Depending on the objective of the course, challenges will be incorporated, from the simple to the complex.
  • Before embarking on a technical section, participants must demonstrate a minimum level of mastery on flat terrain or on trails of lesser technical difficulty.
  • For a technical challenge, we stop, analyze, walk the section and then engage… or not!
