Preparing for Gravel Worlds

What does it take to get ready for Gravel Worlds? Mark O’Brien takes Matilda Reynolds inside his preparation: long climbing days, repeated efforts, technical descents and the challenge of fuelling when the course barely gives you a break. They compare indoor training with riding outdoors, discuss the value of changing your training stimulus, and debate what AI can offer a training plan—and where a human coach still matters.Plus, their take on the Vuelta, racing in the heat, professional cycling’s reliance on sponsors and why cycling’s coaches receive so little public scrutiny.Powered by Black Sheep Cycling.Use code DOMESTIQUES for 20% off Black Sheep Cycling.
