How to ride your Strava routes indoors on a smart trainer
That summer loop you love is a GPX file — so you can ride it indoors in winter. Here's how to ride your Strava routes indoors on a smart trainer, in 3D, from real map and elevation data, without installing anything.
How to ride a GPX file indoors on your smart trainer
Any route you can export as a GPX file, you can ride indoors. Here's how to turn a GPX into a 3D indoor ride on your smart trainer — with real gradients driving the resistance — straight from your browser, no install.
7 rules for building the perfect cycling route (climbs, surfaces, wind and coffee stops)
A great ride is designed, not stumbled upon. These seven rules — from riding into the wind first to matching climbs to your goal — turn any loop into a route you'll want to do again.
Gravel vs road: how to pick the right surface for every ride
Two disciplines, one love of riding. Here's an honest look at gravel vs road — the bikes, the skills, the training value — and how to choose for any given day.
The art of the coffee ride: designing routes around the perfect café stop
The coffee ride is a genre of its own — social, unhurried, and secretly good training. Here's how to design a loop around the perfect mid-ride café stop.
How to plan a cycling trip: turning a bucket-list route into a day-by-day itinerary
Dreaming of the Alps or a week of gravel? Here's how to turn a bucket-list idea into a real day-by-day cycling trip — distances, climbs, stays, food and rough costs.
The same roads backwards: why reversing a route changes the ride
The descent you know by heart is a climb you have never paced, the tailwind is now waiting for you at the wrong end, and the low winter sun is in your eyes at every junction. Why the loop you have ridden forty times is still one ride you haven't done.
Choosing safer roads: what the crash data says about route planning
Riders fear being hit from behind; the collision statistics are dominated by junctions and turning vehicles. What the research says about where risk actually concentrates, and how to turn that into a route-planning habit rather than a worry.
How to descend faster and safer: braking, lines and where to look
Descending is the cheapest free speed in cycling and the skill riders practise least. Braking and weight transfer, the line through a corner, where to put your eyes — and why target fixation puts people in ditches.
Riding in a group: the skills nobody explains to beginners
Sitting in saves a great deal of energy — the wind-tunnel and CFD work puts it higher than most riders assume. How to hold a wheel, rotate, signal and brake in a way that keeps everyone upright.
How to plan a 200 km ride (and finish it)
Two hundred kilometres is a fuelling and pacing problem long before it's a fitness one. Target intensity, carbohydrate per hour over eight hours, where to put the climbs, and where to plan the resupply.
Bikepacking route planning: water, resupply and daylight
Loaded, on unknown surfaces, your daily distance is not your road distance. How to plan around water, shops and daylight — the three things that actually decide whether a bikepacking day works.
Train, ferry, ride: building routes you can't do as a loop
A train leg turns a loop you have ridden forty times into a one-way descent through a valley you have never seen. Planning around timetables and bike reservations, the tailwind you can now guarantee, and what to do when you miss the connection.
Riding in the rain: kit, tyres and technique
Wet riding is mostly a thermoregulation problem with a braking problem attached. What keeps you warm when you're already soaked, how much braking distance you lose, and the tyre and cornering changes that matter.
How to find good roads in a place you've never ridden
Reading a map for gradient and surface, using heatmap data without following the crowd, avoiding the trunk road that looks like a shortcut, and sanity-checking a route before you commit a day to it.
