There are actually quite a lot of cycling orientated websites out there. Some are easy to find, some are not so easy. Here’s my list of the sites that I use and enjoy on a daily basis. It would be great if you could add your own to the mix as I’m always looking for more. They are in no particular order…
BikeRadar
I’m a big, big fan of the Cycling Plus magazine and now also the Triathlon Plus magazine. BikeRadar is the forum and website made by the same guys who make this high quality monthly magazine. They have in depth articles but mostly what I find useful are the forums on there which are nicely populated with generally friendly people.
Bike Blog By the Guardian
The Guardian bike blog is occasionally a really interesting read. They have some well thought out articles on topical cycling issues and they also offer advice on various cycling aspects, like coping with winter riding and so on.
Alison M. Starnes
Alison describes herself as a girl moonlighting as a cyclist. She is, in actual fact, a very good cyclist indeed and her blog simply plots her progress in becoming an ever better cyclist. Her blog is a great read, she has no hidden agenda, she simply likes sharing her cycling life with the world.
Road CC
Road CC is a similar outfit to BikeRadar. They have all the latest news and reviews. They get through an awful lot of gear, not sure if their reviews are quite in-depth enough but they are helpful nonetheless. They also have their own forums if you like using multiple forums. They also have a classifieds section where you can buy and sell cycling gear.
Velogogo
Velogogo is purely and simply a constant stream of highly interesting and thought provoking cycling orientated photography. If you use a RSS reader then subscribe to this one definitely, it only takes a second or two to look at each picture and their pictures are always amazing. Love these guys. The top picture comes straight from their website.
These are all great sites, some useful, some interesting. Of course, I would hope that Daily Cycle is on your list but I’d really love to see what else you guys enjoy looking at ( keep it cycling related please ;) ).
Happy cycling.
