I don't have a problem finding coaches; I have the luxury of choosing one of two very good coaches. I purchased my first road bike in 2007 for fitness, but needed more challenges when I got fit, so I started racing this year (I am a Cat 5). I am from NYC.
Thanks to the responses on this thread I realized that I need to at least try coaching and see how I respond to it.
