Strava Art x Stolen Goat? Thibaut Pinot, Tour de France stage winner, draws a Goat during his 208km “warm-up” ride. Love it or hate it, eventually, everybody takes a quick look at Strava.

Hi, I’m Jenny! I’m a swim-bike-run obsessive (and a fig roll enthusiast), so when I’m not cruising around on my bike I can be found hopping into lakes or out for a shuffle. My childhood and teenage years were mainly spent in a dance studio, so when it came to cycling I was already onboard […]
Trans Baviaans South Africans are a weird bunch. We have a penchant for the extreme, we only deal in absolutes like longest, furthest, highest. Any less and it isn’t worth the effort. That’s why a race like the Trans Baviaans exists, and has 1 500 riders aiming to ride 230 km, traversing the Baviaanskloof nature […]

My First Road Race of the 2018 Season – Tour of the Mining Valleys – Aberystwyth, Wales I had my eyes on this race since early last year. I knew it was a race I would love to get stuck into. I didn’t really want/ envisage it to be my first race of the 2018 […]

Essex on Two Wheels + Cake! Because of my job and it’s odd hours, I’m able to take advantage of getting out on some solo rides around Essex. We live north of the river, so it’s probably the easiest place to get to, although don’t get me wrong, I do like the Kent hills every […]
Mud, Slides & Gratitude Winter training is in full tilt. Never has the weather forecast been checked and rechecked so many times.

Sometimes a product comes along that is so simple, and yet so incredibly advanced that it changes the way we approach and feel about certain things.
