Charismatic cyclist and a patient supportive coach. Felix fitted me on my Cervelo Soloist when I purchased it at R&A last year. I had heard of Felix through the neighborhood grape vine but meeting him was an experience. He is a dynamo and his knowledge of cycling is amazing. Soon afterwards, Felix started coaching me on the fundamentals of cycling. As an old marathoner (first one in 1983), I was a little nervous about the learning process ( I never had to clip on and clip off when I put on my running shoes) but Felix makes it easy. He pushes you to do your best but he is always totally supportive and helpful. One added advantage of training in Propsect Park with Felix is that he knows everybody and everybody knows him! It makes training an event similar to being in the entourage of a celebrity. It's FUN and you get to meet a lot of great people. His training gets you to the point where you're strong enough to keep up with those pelotons circling the park each weekday morning at 6:00 AM!!

Great custom bike fitting.. I had Felix fit me several years ago, but wound up selling that bike and losing touch with him due to a move. Upgraded recently, and tracked him down. I couldn't be happier. We spent about an hour and a half, working every aspect of fit, and the result is terrific. He is very knowledgeable and easy to work with.

Highly recommended, for all services he offers.

The nicest guy you'll have meet!. This guy is fantastic. I have never felt so comfortable with a trainer before. You just understand him. Everything he tells you makes sense. If you're looking to to be properly fitted to your bike, basic training or technique on increasing your speed for competitive reasons or personal performance then you MUST work with Felix. To put it in one word, RESULTS!!!

Best coaching, Brooklyn style. No matter what level your interests in cycling -- beginning, intermediate, or advanced, bike handling, pacelining, sprinting -- Felix can coach you through it. He's supportive and honest, and generous. He loves cycling and gives everything he can to it: he knows his stuff and is the real deal.

Seriously fun...but serious.. Felix has helped me to take my riding to the next level and opened my eyes to my potential. I would recommend to anyone who enjoys cycling and wants to take their riding to the next level, wherever that might be, or to anyone who thinks they might enjoy cycling but has yet to get involved in the sport. Riding in Felix's group has been serious enough to be helpful in developing solid cycling skills, and fun in terms of making a lot of friends that also love cycling!

best cycling coach i've been to. Felix has brought together an amazing group of riders who share a love for the sport and keeps them coming back with his expert knowledge and instruction. He makes training fun, and is always there with advice. Truly a great coach with a love for cycling that he shares with his students.

Expand your option. Before Felix Calderon and New York Cycling, I was a solitary rider. Felix showed me the ropes on group riding, form, and fit, helped me purchase and fit my race bike, and offers continued guidance during my first race season. But even more importantly, EVERY time with Felix is fun, and through him I've made so many friends!

The *only* way to ride.... Felix is an absolute encyclopedia of cycling knowledge. I am a relatively new cyclist, and Felix has helped me with everything from changing a tire to riding in a peloton. I don't go to anywhere or anyone else for my cycling training. If you're interested in learning to be a more serious rider, there's no one better. Highly recommended!

Motivated Me to be my best!. I'm just starting out- Felix made me smile and laugh as I pushed my body beyond what I'd figured I could do- He also fit me to my bike and helped me wade thru all the gear options.
