Hi guys , I am really starting to get into cycling ,But I find myself getting bored now. I’m 22, male , and I have plenty of friends but I have absolutely no one I know who enjoys cycling. How can I make cycling friends my age ? I’m in the uk

Hi all , I’m purchasing my first new road bike . I’ve narrowed it down to these 3

Giant defy advanced 1 £2239
Giant tcr advanced 1 £2079
Giant tcr advanced 0 AXS £2469

Both advanced 1 bikes have 105 di2 with ally wheels

The advanced 0 is sram rival axs and carbon wheels.

I’m newish to road cycling and want to take it serious, but is it over kill for me to spend 2.5k on my first proper bike ? Electronic shifting and carbon wheels sounds great , but is it what I need ?

For reference, I’ve just done 500k through France into Spain on my gravel bike, and I had a trek road bike I bought second hand for £180 . So Ive got some decent time in the saddle but not taken much seriously

Hi all , I’m going to purchase a new road bike, I’ve had a cheap trek bike for a while , and I have a Boardman gravel bike that I did a 500k trip through the south of France into Spain last week on, this has given me a real urge to take cycling seriously.

I have a £2000 budget , I really would like a canyon edurace cf7 but unfortunately they are out of stock till August. Do you guys have any suggestions for bikes I might like instead ? Thanks

Hi guys, I’m pretty new to cycling and I have a boardman gravel bike I bought second hand. The bike has some place in the crankset - pedal move a little side to side . On further inspection it looks like someone has taken it apart before and cross threaded the assembly that goes through the frame of the bike (I don’t know what it’s called sorry ) , I want to order a new crankset but I’m not clued up on the technical specs and what not but I want to learn how to work on my own bike. My question is how I know what crankset to order ? Thanks guys
