Computer-controlled indoor training studio, where you can gain the maximum benefit from training effectively on your own bike, and in the most time-efficient way
Skyhook Coaching Services was born from the experience gained by Founder and Director of Coaching, Steve Harrop, whilst living, training and racing for several years in the USA.
Skyhook Coaching Services provides a holistic approach to training for the committed cyclist. Centred on the needs of you the rider, we ensure that you can develop those elements necessary to attain your cycling goals. Here, rider development is built upon a solid understanding of science and exercise physiology, combined with tried and tested coaching principles. Using state-of-the-art, computer-controlled cycle training equipment we deliver time-efficient, power-based training programs that produce measurable results.
There are many people who think their level of cycling is not “good enough” to benefit from coaching. Habits can be hard to break, so developing good habits early on is clearly more beneficial than getting into bad habits, and then working so hard to change them. A good coach can help us recognise those areas for development and help to put us back on the right track. So whatever your goal, we’d love to hear from you, and let’s talk about how we can help.
Here at Skyhook Coaching we take great pride in the expert services that we provide directly to our athletes. However, we also recognise that there are times where our members will want to make use of even more specialised support, and so to meet this need we collaborate with a number of carefully selected partners.
The exclusive Members Only area of the Skyhook Coaching Services website is the inner sanctum, where our members are able to access all of the benefits that come with being a member of this special club.
These include benefits such as discounts on clothing and other merchandise available exclusively from Skyhook Coaching Services. Our members can also access our functional training and conditioning programmes, and additionally are welcome to participate in the group outdoor training rides designed to elicit similar training responses to our indoor programmes. From time to time we are also able to offer additional benefits by special arrangement with our partners as well as training camps and other special events.
Skyhook Coaching Services: Opinions
Fantastic experience: I had the pleasure of meeting Steve at his studio a few weeks ago to have a full bike fit and shoe cleats set up. After we had discussed any positional aches and my preferences towards power and comfort Steve proceeded with the fit all the time explaining and eliciting my response to movements in position. I’ve had six rides since and have become used to the new set up. I feel more connected to the bike, more comfortable and there’s definitely been a gain by being happier riding in the drops. Five stars from me.
Hi Malcolm, really pleased things have improved for you. You know where we are if you need us for any other support or training. Thanks for your review!
Fantastic experience: Training under Steve is a great experience because Steve is very knowledgeable in this field. His unwavering support and guidance definitely have a positive influence on me and helped me to complete tough rides one after another. One shouldn't be intimated by the term "coaching service" because the cycling programme is based on one's fitness level. So, regardless of one's fitness level, everyone will need to put in sufficient effort during training. Not to mention that the fellow "trainees" are one welcoming bunch, friendly, and cheerful! If you are passionate about cycling and want to improve your overall fitness level, give this a go. You won't regret :)
Many thanks for your positive feedback Zing! The commitment and enthusiasm you bring to each session is what has enabled your success. We just bring the type 2 fun ! Seriously, congratulations on completing your first 200k (and hardly a gel to be seen )
Fantastic experience: Steve’s sessions are always different and help push my training. He sets different challenges and the community is great.
Many thanks for the feedback Niall! I'm so grateful to be able to work with you and the rest of the team! #inspirational athletes
Fantastic experience: I have done a number of rides since visiting Steve at Skyhook, and my visit resulted in increased comfort over extended distances which is exactly what I stated my goal was when I contacted Skyhook. We worked on alterations based on my specific requirements and took time to understand how each change impacted my body as a whole. For the price this was excellent and I fully recommend Skyhook. I will be back for more coaching services in time too! Thanks again Steve!
Great to hear things have improved (and hopefully will continue to do so) for you Steve. Thanks for the feedback and look forward to hearing from you if we can help in the future. Keep on enjoying your riding!
Fantastic experience: I had a thorough bike fit with Steve, which included a really informed discussion about position, riding style and goals. I was surprised how much adjustment was needed to my cleats - but it really made a difference when I rode afterwards. Great attention to detail, and Steve's racing and endurance background should cover everyone's needs. Recommended!
So pleased the bike fitting has improved your riding comfort Dave. Always great to get positive feedback. Really appreciate the endorsement! Thanks
Fantastic experience: Brilliant service for my bike fit. Cant believe the difference in performance and comfort. Worth every penny and would highly recommend
Many thanks Martin. Delighted to help! And good luck with LEJOG - hope you enjoy your ride!
Fantastic experience: Great results. I could feel the difference in every adjustment.
Fantastic experience: I have been a member of Skyhook for nine months now with Steve acting as both coach and mentor. It has been great for an old man, I'm 70, to have the degree of encouragement that makes me able to achieve more n a bike than I've ever done before. All the sessions, which continued remotely through lockdown, are targeted at steady improvement. they are tough, but that is the way it should be if anyone is looking to develop. When I have been out on the roads recently I can notice a real improvement. it is great to be able to recommend and endorse a business that has made me realise I can still improve and achieve my goals.
Thanks so much Pete! The massive increase in your aerobic capacity that we've seen from your lactate test this week is fantastic. You should feel justifiably proud of your improved fitness, especially training through the lockdown restrictions earlier this year. You're a terrific role model for everyone in the Skyhook community. Keep it up buddy!
Fantastic experience: A scientific approach to cycling training. Steve is very clued up on all aspects of individual training. He also is very welcoming and quickly put you at your ease.
Many thanks for your positive feedback Su! We always do our best
Fantastic experience: If you want results then this is the place to go. Steve is passionate about coaching and cycling and is devoted to all his customers.
Fantastic experience: I am not a pro rider (those guys out and about all weekend crunching the miles at hyper speed) but a Joe Bloggs of the cycling world.. Yes Steve deals with these guys but also helps people like me achieve my own personal goal. I was not a rider 4 months ago and I decided to do a London to Paris for the NKF (National Kidney Federation and Steve is helping me achieve my goal and I have to say I am getting better and better after every session. Steve gives lots of encouragement and support and the programmes are different every week and its a great feeling when you complete one. Also it must be stressed that you never feel inferior or intimidated by the "pro riders" that go, as you all work the same percentage of your current capacity. Its difficult to explain on here but trust me. Thank you Steve
