Speaking Engagements
Speaking Engagements
Having coached athletes at every level from club D grade to World Tour, written for most magazines in Australia and many around the world, Fenz (Mark Fenner) himself has competed at world level in cycling and can tailor the speaking engagement to the target audience. Having ridden across America from Canada to Mexico, competed in Europe and around the World, helped athletes win club, state, national and world titles at every age group from world tour 22 year olds to 60+ masters there is no area that is out of reach or comment.
Be entertained as you learn about training, racing, nutrition, power, altitude training or being in the team car in ASIA supporting riders. Speaking engagement weekends can often include a morning ride with Fenz on the road or MTB.
