2022 Blue Ridge Fall Foliage Power Road Camp
Get ready to explore the fall foliage on the Blue Ridge Parkway
with Hunter Allen and PCG Team!
October 26-30, 2022

"You can't win every race, but you can always nail your peak." -- Hunter
The "brochure" can't even come close to describing all that happens at a PCG Camp. But let's try anyway! There's WKO5 analysis and season preparation by the master himself. There's daily rides where skills like sprinting, counter-steering, descending(!) and pacelining are taught and practiced. There's on-the-road race scenarios where teams battle it out for all the glory. There's stories from Hunter's many, many years in the industry and as a professional cyclist. There's SAG support, amazing A, B and C Road Groups for different levels, massages, yoga, stretching, on-staff bike mechanics, incredible food, bike fits, rider video analysis... There's just so much!
The goal of this amazing camp is to focus on improving your ride skills and techniques as well as race tactics and strategy--while accurately developing your power profile in WKO and setting up for your 2023 season according to your goals! The beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains are the perfect place for a fall cycling camp with awesome climbing opportunities, quiet country roads for race scenarios, and it’s the hometown for the Peaks Coaching Group Headquarters!
The Countdown is on!

FTP Test on Legendary Thunder Ridge!
The White Mailbox that Changed Cycling Forever
Just as the small, innocuous supermarket on the road up to the Col de la Madone became the "official" starting point for so many professional cyclists to test themselves against the best, the White Mailbox in the Blue Ridge Mountains is the official starting point for so many of Hunter Allen's industry-smashing testing protocols.
It's a place of history, where Olympians, National- and World-Champions routinely visit to test themselves; both against themselves--and past champions. (The latest just stood on the podium at ITU's Worlds in Lausanne, Switzerland.)
It's the mail box that helped to define an entirely new science of training and racing that has been called the single most-influential development in cycling in the past 20 years.
Campers will get to know the White Mailbox very well--since part of this Fall's camp is to define your power profile through Hunter Allen's testing protocols. All in an effort to understand your phenotype and to help set up the training for your 2023 goals.
And at the top of the climb? The Peaks of Otter--first accurately measured by Thomas Jefferson in 1815 and from where the "Peaks" in "TrainingPeaks com" comes from.
