Its now public knowledge how difficult is was to buy a bike in the UK after March 2020 and throughout Lockdown. Bike supply during the end of 2020 and possibly for 2021 is most likely not going to get much better. With a 4-5 month break in bike factory, and equally as importantly, bicycle components […]
This time last year (quite possibly after a glass of wine) I messaged my local club to see if anyone was interested in riding the 256km Sportive route of the 2019 Liege Bastogne Liege, 5 others were keen. It was on. 6 became 5, became 4 but this did mean slightly easier logistics for the […]

A few of the All Terrain Cycles racing team members took the opportunity of an early season training camp in Mallorca. Considerable better weather than back in the UK seeing late teen / early twenties temperatures and good sun levels. A varied mix of hills and distance to cater for all was certainly a change […]

Many enthusiasts continue to ride throughout the winter months and as long as you and your bike are properly equipped, there’s no reason to hang up your cleats until the Spring. Safety, of […]
After months of glorious sunshine, even the most reticent fair weather cyclists may be thinking that it’s time to get back in the saddle. For many of us, some of Yorkshire’s finest cycling country is just a short ride away. Whether you want a steady amble down quiet lanes or the challenge of some of […]

It’s easy to plan your own trip, either here or abroad, or if you would prefer someone else to organise it, there are hundreds of specialist tour companies which will take care of […]
Electrically assisted bikes are becoming a common sight on our road and cyclepaths – combining a conventional bike with a battery and motor, they take much of the effort out of pedalling. Not only is this great for older cyclists who don’t want to struggle up hills, but they’re now proving popular with people of […]
A frustratingly poor 2017 saw me hitting up Trainer Road over the winter and starting 2018 in better form.
