Racing your bike without a foundation of critical skills and lessons often leads to: 

  • Training hard without seeing any meaningful improvements in fitness
  • Discouraging and inconsistent race results 
  • Wasting thousands of dollars on equipment and coaching 
  • A routine that takes all your time and energy with little to no return

The Couch To Crit Masterclass helps you reach racing success, train effectively, understand what equipment actually makes a difference, and continue to love riding your bike throughout the entire process.

Meet Your Coach

Hi, I'm Jeff Linder. You might also know me as NorCal Cycling on YouTube. 

I'm a Category 1 cyclist and former California State Champion sharing my 15+ years of experience racing bikes and coaching others to make YOU a faster cyclist.

Whether you're preparing for your first race, training hard for your first win, or chasing down your next upgrade, it’s my goal to help you become a faster (and safer) cyclist and build community around this sport we all love.

If Other Athletes Can Do It, You Can Too.

"What I was able to accomplish in 6 months was outstanding." - Logan McPherson

As someone new to the sport, it saved me so many headaches. 

This did a great job teaching me, guiding me, and even solving problems before I knew I had them.

What I was able to accomplish in 6 months was outstanding and not something that people can accomplish by themselves—especially as a new or intermediate athlete.

"This took my cycling to the next level." - Mustafa Cayci

After I started racing, I quickly realized I needed structure and well thought out training.

I've always watched Jeff's YouTube videos, but his program took my cycling to the next level.

Between his structured training, equipment recommendations, and ability to help me understand my physical advantages, I was able to achieve a goal of mine—I qualified to represent my state at the national level.
