Adventure Cycling’s Leadership Training Course (LTC) is designed for experienced bicycle travelers who wish to learn our philosophy of leadership and how it applies to both our self-contained and supported bicycle tours. Participants will spend a little over three days with some of our most road-savvy leaders exploring the dynamics of outdoor leadership, the hows and whys of group motivation, and successful conflict resolution. We’ll also discuss bicycle repair, camping how-tos, food preparation and chore rotation, cycling safety, and more.
Your LTC experience will be beneficial regardless of how you end up using the knowledge and skills you’ll gain. Some attendees wish to form their own tour companies while others simply hope to acquire expertise in organizing and leading club rides or other bike adventures with friends. Folks often seek to reap new perspectives for their workplaces or to hone personal leadership and relationship skills. Prospective Adventure Cycling tour leaders complete this course as a required prerequisite.
Whatever your goals, this course offers opportunities for serious introspection and self-evaluation, as you discover what it takes to be an effective outdoor leader.
