When our Head Coach, Jake Hales set up Ride Revolution, one of our primary aims was to offer an affordable quality cycle fitness coach for recreational cyclists. There are many coaching companies out there that focus on racing riders only, but there seems to be precious few quality offerings for recreational riders looking to improve. With lots of “one size fits all” online options from big players like Peloton and Zwift, there is an obvious niche for a company like Ride Revolution to offer unique tailors one to one fitness cycle coaching.
Roughly 30% of our riders would classify themselves as recreational, few have any interest or intention to get into racing. The age range is huge, from 18 to 70 with a pretty even split male to female. Whilst several of our coaches do coach recreational riders, it’s such a growth market we now have dedicated 2 coaches.
The majority of riders we coach in this area are shocked by the fitness and other gains we are able to help them achieve. Our structured coaches will improve general fitness, help weight loss, improve riding pleasure, endurance and of course speed, it will also make climbing easier! Our coaching sessions can easily be adapted to suit those who are have limited time.

We like to get a good understanding of your current situation, goals, style and general cycling history. Jake will then recommend the best RideRevolution coach for your needs, all are skilled and experienced.
Where are you at?
Your new coach will have a second, more in depth consultation and will analyse past data and training in depth as well as conducting tests to assess your current fitness level, strengths and weaknesses. This will then form a baseline to create a plan unique to your needs to maximise your potential development.

Your coach will create a personalised training plan for you, using TrainingPeaks software to set and record your sessions. After each training session, you will upload your ride data. Your coach will review your training, provide feedback and set your next block of training. All training is bespoke to each rider.
