More InfoBILDERDAM LEIMUIDEN LOOP CLOCKWISE
A pleasant short loop in almost pan-flat typical Dutch surroundings. Filmed on a sunny June morning with an unusually mild breeze.
More InfoARAKAWA RIVER
A flat, traffic-free ride alongside the Arakawa River from the Iwabuchi sluice gate to the end of the Arakawa Cycling Road at Shinsuna, Koto-ku, in Tokyo. Chris Froome (Team INEOS) and his team mates rode here when they came to Japan in October, 2019.
More InfoBOULDER ROUBAIX
The Boulder Roubaix is a tribute to the European classic Paris Roubaix. BR is held every other year and utilizes a rolling course with a mix of gravel and pavement. The route is a loop through farm and horse country north of Boulder.
More InfoBOTH SIDES OF BONNET, TASMANIA
Filmed on a crisp Tasmanian winter's morning, this is a popular training ride with the locals. Starting in Sandy Bay, we head south through Taroona, warming the legs before having a crack up Bonnet Hill. After a fast descent and a lap around Kingston Beach, we ramp it up again and climb back over Bonnet Hill from the other (steeper) side. It's a furious descent into Sandy Bay as thoughts turn to post-ride coffee, finishing the ride with a view across the harbour.
