Recently had a email from a coach who is going to be running some training days for women over the winter and he was asking our group for our thoughts.

He says …there was a rider with us on a training day who couldn’t sprint for a line because of her fear of getting out of the saddle… a rider who had no fear of standing on the pedals on steep hills, but couldn’t copy that standing motion when riding on the flat and doing a sudden attack.

He's been trying to come up with ways to help her overcome this. Anyone got any suggestions?
