Riding off-piste for off-limits mountain bike adventures
Life is not a dress rehearsal, and we often forget that we should take our own pathway. We’re given 85400 seconds in every day, to do with what we choose. How will you use yours…
Great bike shops – Cycling Heaven in Vienna
Vienna is a city that is renowned for several reasons. It’s also home to one of the best cycling shops in central Europe too – VELETAGE. We spoke with Kurt, the owner and found out more about this cycling emporium of excellence
Cycling into spring and summer
There’s currently a chaotic feeling of uncertainty around the world and the global cycling scene. However, we all have to stay focused and to try to ride into a more positive future. I’m not advocating retail therapy as a solution. No, not at all. Rather, it’s simply time to accept that we need to pause and reflect on how we spend money on new bikes and new cycling products.
The spectrum of cycling and life
Cycling is something quite unique. We can’t adequately label it, nor describe it, for it has so many forms, variations and a rich tapestry of people who choose to ride. However, we all share one thing – a sense of adventure, as we find freedom on two wheels
SQLab Saddles for Prostate Problems and Back Pain
Now that we’ve got you sitting relatively comfortably on your new SQLab step saddle, we want to talk with you about those medical issues which some cyclists unfortunately have, and which can benefit from even more detailed technical thinking from those clever people at SQlab. Let’s look at bike saddles for back pain and prostate issues
Effective ergonomics and choosing the correct bike saddle
Making sure that your bike saddle is comfortable and that it is the correct saddle for you, is more important than we usually give it credit for. It’s important to ask yourself the question: ‘am I sitting comfortably?’
Mental well-being and the positive effects of cycling
Mental health can be devastating, and there are far more people suffering it than we believe. At various levels, from the onset of stress to a more serious depression, we all have periods where the world just seems unfriendly and confused for us. Thankfully, cycling can be a positive way of countering these feelings.

Cycling accident alert systems – crash sensors and locator devices
Heading into the hills on road or trail, especially when riding alone, can bring a wealth of risks to the ride. We want to be adventurous, but we also need others to know that we’re okay – and more importantly, when we’re not okay. Time to take a look at Crash Sensors and location devices for cyclists
Choosing the best road and offroad cycling shoes
Finding the best cycling shoes in the world is a challenge. Ultimately, we’re all built differently, and that includes the uniqueness of our feet and how we use them. Add to this, that brands can’t easily shout out that they probably make the best cycling shoes, then we’ve got an additional barrier. Time then to look at what does make a great cycling shoe even greater.
