I just spent the past 5 days at the USA Olympic Training Facility in Colorado Springs getting certified as a USA Cycling mechanic and official. Class was held 8-10pm every day and was broken up into different topics presented by world renown USAC mechanics. There was a final exam to become a certified mechanic and another test to become a USAC official.
I had a great time meeting fellow mechanics and rubbing elbows with company owners and race officials. I passed both my certification exams with flying colors and got a lot of bike swag.
Ill miss being at the OTC and hanging out with mechanics from all over the USA but I made a bunch of friends and contacts in the cycling industry.
