The objectives of this one-day seminar are to help Physiotherapists: 1) understand the key concepts in correct bike fit for road cyclists, XC mountain bikers and triathletes, 2) recognize the common bike fit faults that contribute to cycling-related overuse injuries, and 3) enhance their treatment of clients with cycling-related overuse injuries.  These objectives will be accomplished via lecture and practical hands-on sessions. Participants will work in small groups to analyze key elements of bike fit on volunteers selected to bring their bikes to this seminar.

Seminar Fee:  $ 300 (SPC members); $ 375 (non-members); Students $ 225
