What: Better Fit = Better Ride
Who: Erik Lineberry, PT, DPT, InMotion Physical Therapy
Where: InMotion Physical Therapy, 5711 S. Laburnum Ave, Richmond, VA 23231
We are back to having a program (or two) after a busy summer of club events and fundraisers! Our presenter Erik Lineberry is a physical therapist at InMotion Physical Therapy and relatively new RABA member. While in PT school, he became involved with an organization that built adaptive tricycles/bicycles for individuals that have physical or mental challenges that began my interest in cycling as a sport and hobby. Since then, he has completed specialty training in orthopedics including coursework in treatment of cycling-related injuries, clinical bike fitting, and providing guidance to improve the performance and movement of cyclists to allow them to reach their goals for training, commuting, and competing.
Erik will address 1. the differences between a retail shop fitting versus a rehab bicycle fitting and 2. review common injuries related to bicycle riding and poor fit and what might be done to alleviate those aches and pains. InMotion PT is also graciously providing light refreshments, so to help them with getting a proper headcount, please register by Monday, October 15, at: https://www.viethconsulting.com/members/evr/reg_event.php?orgcode=RABA&evid=19863289
