In late 2021, PCG Texas hosted the first ever PCG Texas Fall Power Camp in Leakey Texas. (Leakey is pronounced LAKE-E). Leakey is a tiny town in the Texas hill country 100 miles west of San Antonio. It’s a hidden gem for cycling.
(Please don’t tell anyone else.)
PCG Texas is a group of cyclists coached by Elite/Master Coach Rickey Wray Wilson and Associate Coach Keith Nelson in the Fort Worth, Texas area. This group does their own weekly group rides, they also like to join local charity or organized rides like the MS-150 with Health’s Angels MS Cycling Team and the Hotter than Hell 100 (www.hh100.org).
PCG Texas Fall Power Camp was headquartered this past year at the Frio Pecan Farm. This is a working pecan farm with over 1000 pecan trees (11 different varieties), it has the crystal-clear Frio River running through it, and deer roam freely on the farm. It is so amazingly dark and quite at night! The farm also boasts amazing cabin style accommodations, some with their own pool!

I have always ridden a bike and in fact, I have ridden a bike a lot. I’ve completed numerous 100-mile and 100-kilometer rides in my lifetime, but I didn’t become a “cyclist” until 2016.
That all changed when a famous Texas cyclist opened a bike store in Fort Worth Texas, and I went for the grand opening ride. I was able to keep up with the group for several miles, thanks to all the red lights and the group obeying of the traffic laws. Eventually, I was dropped and returned the bike store to wait for the other riders to return. While waiting, one of the clerks noticed my displeasure and suggested that I needed to train upstairs with Rickey Wray Wilson (RWW) and the rest is history.
I began working with RWW and in 2.5 years my FTP increased by 50%, my overall fitness increased, and cycling was more fun at 17-18 mph rather than the 13 mph that I was doing before. From there, I joined a Multiple Sclerosis cycling team (Health’s Angels) and began having my best 100-mile and 100-km rides. It is really rewarding to set personal records (PR) frequently. Improvement is so motivating.
I can’t help myself in that I look at everything for improvement. If it’s driving on vacation, I find the fastest way possible and when it takes longer, I try figure out why and change the plan for the next time. I’m an engineer by degree and expert in business process improvement. At work, I was given the moniker of “Metric Man” because I like to break things down to a definable, measurable amount and then see how it improves over time. “What you measure they will treasure” is a phrase that I love (not sure where it came from) and I like this quote from business guru Peter Drucker, “If you can’t measure it, you can’t improve it.”
PCG coaches are champion tested and podium approved!
With coaches throughout the world, we specialize in remote coaching and have over 200+ years of experience.
All of our coaches have been trained by Hunter Allen’s proprietary training methods in data-driven training, complete with power, heart rate, and perceived exertion. Our coaches use a unique blend of personal knowledge, intuition, and experience, all combined with the powerful tool of real data.
Your coach will help you achieve your goals!
Teaching, and helping others to improve, has always been my passion. My goal, after retiring from a 40-year career in railroad management, was to merge my cycling interest with my passion for teaching. My training with a coach was a motivator in pursuing the education and certifications needed to become qualified to teach others. My life and career experiences have provided me with a deep understanding of athletes who are seeking the optimal work/life balance. Having been extremely overweight, I also have a deep, personal, understanding of the additional challenges that this places upon your quest for improved fitness. Initially, we will spend time to thoroughly understand your current fitness level and desired goals. We will study your unique work/life needs and challenges that could impact your training. From there we will work together, as a team, to design the optimum workout schedule and follow your progress as you improve and reach your fitness, event, and race goals.
