ED’S LETTER
pring’s on the horizon (finally!) and as well as the inevitable
return of TV shows charting the progress of daffodils, lambs and
baby birds it also means one thing for triathletes – time to get
back on the bike. Yep, from now on it’s all about Lycra,
aerodynamics and generating the kind of wattage that could light
a small village. That’s where
The Complete Guide to Triathlon Cycling
comes in,
handcrafted by the world’s best triathlon magazine –
220 Triathlon.
Yes, you still
need to swim and run, but now’s the time when your cycling, which has taken a
backseat due to flooded roads and iced country lanes, takes centre stage.
Now, we don’t mean to spread rumours but, among single-sport cyclists, triathletes have a bad
reputation. Cyclists think that we have the handling ability of a drunken waiter and wouldn’t know the
difference between a groupset and Groupon. (Clearly they haven’t met Sebastian Kienle or the Brownlee
brothers, but there you go.) Well, clearly Froome and co don’t know what they’re talking about, but just to
ensure their misconceptions remain just that, read on to become a gear
aficionado, master mechanic, smart trainer and dietary dynamo.
In this guide you’ll discover both the basics and more advanced training
techniques. We’ll show you how to change a puncture and how to maximise a
power meter; we reveal what budget-dependent features to look for in
search of the best triathlon bike; and you’ll learn the fuelling tips to help
you morph into a sporty Ainsley Harriott (if you can imagine such a thing).
Ultimately, this guide will show you how to bike faster for triathlon, after the
rigours of a swim and preceding the jelly-legged run. Prepare for a new PB…
