Bradley Wiggins was back in the London velodrome last week. Unfortunately he was not starting a track cycling comeback, but instead was there to compete in the British Indoor Rowing Championships.

Already somewhere we really want to go riding, Japan has just got better for cycling. The East Japan railway company has created a train to carry 99 riders and their bikes out of Tokyo.

The iconic finale of the Tour of Flanders, the Muur-Bosberg combo will be including in the finale of Omloop Het Nieuwsblad for 2018

Strava have released their end of year stats. This year 7.3 billion kilometres were ridden, and the most popular day to ride was the 21st of May.

There’s a man taking bike lanes to a whole new level, a PBAN down under, and there was finally some ‘proper’ cyclocross weather.

We’ve still got all your favourite segments like Hack/Bodge, Caption of the Week, and Wattage Bazooka.
