Welcome to your home for cycling training and performance nestled in the heart of the North Carolina Mountains!

The world of cycling is so complex these days. People in their 50's are competing, juniors are learning how to race, and many people are picking up the sport for the first time. At VPC, we want to guide you through every level of your cycling. We opened our doors to be able to cater to you, whether that is advice on what bike to purchase, how to train for your particular cycling sport, what equipment is necessary, how to manipulate nutrition, how to gain a few seconds on a Time Trial, or how to descend a mountain; we want to be here personally to see you through each step.
