Thanks again for your time Kevin. Reviewing the video as well as working
with you in the water has given me a lot to consider for improvement. I wasn’t sure how much could be accomplished in
only two sessions, but your quick analysis, critique, and subsequent instruction were right on point and should be a big help
to me for Dewey and for training in general.

Hello all,
I hope this correspondence finds you all well as we wind down another season pursuing the sport
we love. I personally committed the second half of my year to the discipline of the Time Trial. The intensity and focus required
to stay on the redline for an hour is one aspect of the "Race of Truth" I find very appealing. In addition, there
are numerous opportunities locally to find extremely significant competition. Just when you think your game is coming together
as a triathlete, compete against specialists and see what happens.
I make an effort to not promote any aspect of
my business via TriDelaware, do not believe that is the purpose of this group. However, when one feels the need to make an
unsolicited endorsement for another local endeavor, this is a wonderful medium. Not being the brightest bulb in the tanning
bed, I waited until 10 days before my last race of the season to seek out the guidance of Mr. Danahy, and be professionally
fitted via the only mobile wind tunnel in existence.
The technology previously only available to the best cyclists
in the world is now trickling down to hackers like myself. And my only regret is that I waited this long to walk my bike around
the corner to see Kevin. A few hours, which was just too much fun, and the results are amazing. My TT position was more suited
to Ironman comfort than 40k fast, and the difference is significant. Post fit I gained 16 more watts with no change in effort.
Not a lot? That is .5 mph faster, which is the difference between 10th and 3rd in a USA Cycling 40k TT.
Personal
Goal for the season was a top 3 finish in a USA cycling event, was less than a minute away on several occasions. How psyched
am I for next season, knowing the potential? My last event was the Deep Blue TT in Augustine Beach DE, which I considered
way too short for my strengths, but would be a perfect test for the new position. I had the highest placement of the season,
still no podium but climbing up there, and the highest average speed I have ever seen (26.1 mph in the last 6 miles)
"True confidence is real proof of ability." And these results are real, the wind tunnel proves it to you. Free
speed! Of course it is not "free" but how much did you spend on your wheels? It is highly likely you are not getting
the most out of your significant investment of both time and money if your aero position is less than ideal for your distance
and goals.
Anyone who wants to get faster needs to do this, and don't we all fall into that category? Kevin and
aerofit mobile offer an amazing product and we are incredibly fortunate to have this opportunity right here.
Good
luck everyone and Thank you Kevin, Paul

Hi Kevin, I only met with you for one session, but you have no idea how you helped me. I met with you
because I fell during one of my rides and broke my collar bone and shoulder. I was ridding scared, and I also felt like I
could do better, it was like something was missing. I was afraid to use bike shoes and my foot kept slipping off the peddle.
You suggested bike shoes without clips and maybe down the road new peddles. After I left you I immediately went to the bike
shop,changed peddles, one side clips in if you wish the other is flat. I bought new shoes with clips, but I still do not clip.
I began to practice the routines we did every chance I got. I can't tell you how much I appreciate your
time and consideration. You made me feel like I could really be better, you didn't make me feel like at seventy I should be
glad to just ride. You listened to me and I felt like you understood I could be better at ridding. Thanks to you I did complete
62 miles at the Amish bike ride in Dover (I signed up for the 50), and Saturday I completed 100 miles at the Seagull Century
2011. I really mean "thank you". I am sure if I didn't meet with you in June, I would still be ridding scared. I
will come to see you again after my knee replacement in December. Until then, ride safe and thank you. Margie
