This week’s edition is packed with festive fitness tips, cycling sponsor mysteries, and group ride etiquette advice. We kick things off with a fun challenge: can you guess what cycling sponsors like Alpecin-Deceuninck or Bahrain Victorious actually do? Next, we tackle the Rapha Festive 500—an ambitious 500km challenge over Christmas. Is it a fitness boost or a recipe for burnout? We share strategies to help you stay strong and enjoy the ride.
We also dive into your pressing questions, from managing holiday indulgence with intermittent fasting to self-coaching for events like Badlands. On group rides, we explore whether everyone should take turns at the front or if saving energy for sprints is fair game. Plus, tips for dealing with the notorious “power numbers guy” without losing your cool. Let’s keep the wheels spinning!
