Whether on-road or off-road, whilst cycling, your legs are constantly engaged. The repetitive movements through the legs can lead to tightness and imbalances as we often all have one preferred leg to lead with. 

Session four will focus on the quads and hamstrings, for every cracking descent there’s a challenging climb and thus tight quads muscles and hammies. We’ll focus on flexibility to unravel knotty muscles post ride.

The repetitive nature of pushing power through the pedals in an unusual bent over position towards the handlebars isn’t natural for the body.  This position can commonly cause tightness all around the hip area.

Session 3 will focus on the hips, hip flexors and glutes. As riders we are all too familiar with tight hips and hip associated pain such as ‘sciatica’. We’ll focus on increasing mobility and flexibility to release pain and discomfort whilst cycling.

This should also help reduce the chance of future injuries.

As part of the Women’s Festival of Cycling 2021 Cycling UK are offering a series of exciting yoga classes for cyclists of all ages and abilities. This is the second session in our four-part yoga series and focuses on the all-important shoulders and wrists.

Cycling on and off-raid puts pressure and strain through these areas of the body. The more saddle time you get in the more niggles you’re likely to feel, whether that's stiffness and tightness or reduced flexibility.

Join us LIVE on Wednesday 30 June at 7.15pm as we unearth the Tales of the Trails.

Funded by the National Lottery Heritage Fund, this project celebrates the heritage of the communities in Ynysybwl and Clydach Vale while inspiring residents and visitors to explore the local area by bike. We are co-designing a network of trails that tell a story, connecting place, heritage and people.

Evans Cycles, the UK specialist bike retailer, has begun celebrations for its centenary - marking 100 years on the British high street - and as part of their plans they are supporting the World’s Biggest Bike Ride.

In order to mark 100 years on the UK high street, the leading bike retailer is attempting to recreate cycling's modal share during its heyday of 1949: estimated at a whopping 37% (more than that in the Netherlands today).

Cycling is a fantastic way to get to know a place, and the Routes and Roots project will take residents and visitors alike on a journey of discovery through Belfast. 

Join us online on Thursday 27 May to discover the Maritime Heritage Trail, a route linking well-known landmarks such as the Harland and Wolff cranes and Titanic museum, as well as a host of hidden gems.
