The Business of Coaching, EVOQ.BIKE

Alex decided to be captain today, and he poses a bunch of questions that peel the curtain back on EVOQ. How did we begin, what has the growth story been, and where are we headed!? This is quite different from our normal posts, but hopefully inspiring those that want to get into coaching (whether on a bike or elsewhere) and giving some more context to who we are as a coaching group.
