"Ted, thanks for all the help this season, I learned a ton. I'm already
looking forward to next season. I'm hooked on cross." - Steve Biedron
I picked up Cyclocross with no bike handling experience of any type. I
wanted to improve my bike handing skills and also continue to stay in
shape after the triathlon season. Cyclocross (CX) ended up being a
perfect solution. I am very fortunate and grateful that I had Coach Ted
help prepare me with a well thought out race strategy to have successful
races and an overall successful CX season

Well-Fit has developed a cyclocross program ("Well-Fit CX") in connection with the Chicago Cyclocross Cup, a series of cyclocross races beginning September 19th and culminating on December 5th with the Illinois State Cyclocross Championship at Montrose Harbor, Chicago.
Well-Fit CX was designed and will be led by Ted Ramos with assistance from Sharone Aharon. Ted is a Level 3 USA Cycling coach, and USAC Category 1 cyclocross racer, an Elite level off-road triathlete and a veteran of nearly 10 years of cyclocross competitions.
The program is comprised of two sessions that typically meet 2x per week-- one indoor training session on Thursday evenings at 7:30pm at the Well-Fit Training Center and a second outdoor training session on Saturday mornings at 7:30am. The schedule may be modified by the coaches, as necessary.
Cyclocross will begin at the Well-Fit Training Center on Thursday September 9th and culminate in the Illinois State Cyclocross Championship at Montrose Harbor.
Training includes a daily workout program, two coached group sessions each week (Thursday evenings and Saturday Mornings), and support of your cycling goals from your team and coaches. With more than 30 years of combined coaching experience, Well-Fit coaches will provide you with the building blocks to a successful cyclocross season.
What to expect at the Program:
- Training sessions on Thursday Nights and Saturday Mornings
- Significantly improve your bike handling skills
- Improve your sustainable wattage output
- Prepare for the demands of cyclocross racing
Testimonial:
"I was in the second cross class with Ted this year. I
wanted to say it was a great class. I learned a lot from Ted, during practice
and at races. Ted was more than willing to help address problem areas, like off
camber turns or high speed dismounts. He was also more than willing to give
great advice about how to deal with tricky parts of the course at the race (and
at practice beforehand). It was good to go over the 'basics' in each Saturday
practice and the indoor workouts were very challenging... first time in a while
i felt like i was going to be sick.
Just wanted to let you know I was more than pleased with the class." -Mike Beebe
