Shortly after we’d been “scolded” by someone Shortly after we’d been “scolded” by someone who thought we might have been trying to sneak a geared road bike with no pedals on to ride on the track….in retrospect the persons rudeness and patronising approach was really disappointing as thankfully I’m comfortable I’ve ridden many more hours on the track than the person in question, but if I had been new to the sport and unaware, I would of thought all track riders were like that and certainly wouldn’t have been encouraged to come back. Ah well. Thanks to @cycletogs we got some great photos for a recently completed @fahrworksbikes build 😀👍 #cycling #bikesnobs #bekind #respect #trackcycling #roadcycling

I know I should do more “cross-training”, but I know I should do more “cross-training”, but I just love riding my bike too much.

We all did it, and we got there without any seriou We all did it, and we got there without any serious crashes or mechanics failures! 355km, 14hrs of riding. A very tough day in the sun, against a headwind, but amazing ride and amazing team and support crew. 🙌🏻👍
I feel so lucky that my body still lets me take on I feel so lucky that my body still lets me take on challenging events, that I always want to make them count. The start of this year was a bit of a write off after routine surgery left me with a burst artery in my neck. The hits just keep on coming I thought….but next week I will be part of a team that I put together to ride across the country, from NW to SE. 355km or 221miles from Manchester to Chelmsford. A very, very long day in the saddle. As usual, I am riding in honour of and to try and help as many of the children living with Cancer all over the UK. We @cyclistsfightingcancer give as many bikes as we can to children and the value it has to their lives as their bodies fight this horrible disease is truly astonishing. If you can spare the price of a coffee and cake to help me raise as much as I can please go to the link in my bio, at 4:30am on my birthday as I start riding it will mean the world! Thanks! Love, Rich

What our clients say
  • Having the pro bike fit from Richards is the best thing I’ve done for my cycling, all my issues with comfort, aches and pains vanished straight away.
    David Smith
  • Richard I swear to god I could have kissed you today! I have not been out since my bike fit. Previously I was having serious pain in my left shoulder within 10 miles. Today, despite not been on my bike for weeks I did 43 miles and didn’t feel my usual pain once!! Your a Genius!! Thanks so much. Sally
    Sally Porter
  • The best cost v’s benefit upgrade I have made to my cycling performance.
    Si DeplitchTeam Chronomaster Rider
  • Before seeing Richard I was on the point of giving up cycling, it was hard and also causing severe lower back pain. What a difference Richard has made! I can now tell the power is going through my legs, I feel strong and much faster (even up hills), my back is no longer hurting and I am enjoying riding again! Thanks so much
    Kathryn Berry
  • The fit by Richard was truly brilliant. While I am a positive amateur by comparison of some of the people Richard fits, I still felt incredibly welcome and got the feeling that I was really benefitting from what was being done. This was in no small part due to the constant explanation Richard gave of each step, the logic behind it and how it would benefit me.
    Matt Cooper
  • The service that Richard provided was exceptional – I really can’t recommend it highly enough. I came away from the session with a lot more understanding on a range of things; including on how my body is ‘set-up’ and what is required to be more efficient in the saddle, but also how to help my back pain, on and off the bike. The advice was really well delivered and Richard clearly has a very deep understanding (even more than my physio who I pay a fortune for!!). It’s fantastic – top marks
    Ben Williams
  • I’d just like to say a big thank from myself and Lauren for your help, after the way she came off in tears the week before the event I honestly thought she wouldn’t be able to take part. It goes with out saying I’ll recommend you to any one in the future. Many thanks Dave
    DavidFather of Junior National Champ
  • ust thought I’d let you know did over 100 miles at the weekend and not felt this good on a bike for years, if you would like to show this email to anyone please do so…… if anyone is thinking of having a bike fit, save your money messing about and just go to Richard, I wasted hundreds of pounds on bike fits over a number of years, but none were anywhere near as good as Richard. He took hours sorting me out both on and off the bike and I got the feeling time was not an issue with him if I were to run over my allotted time.
    Norman FinchExperienced endurance cyclist
  • Having read many positive reviews on internet formus I decided to book in for a Pro Fit. I went last night and from starting with asking questions about sports injury history etc, Richard went on to position my cleats perfectly, alter saddle height, stem length, handlebars, saddle and tilt. Instantly felt completely different on the turbo trainer and pedal strokes feel much smoother and more efficient. Not only that, Richard also took a look at pretty much every screw he could find on my bike and even altered my gearing slightly and tightened up my rear brake….much appreciated! Richard’s service is second to none and I would recommend to anyone.
    Josh TurnerMulti-Day Event Rider
  • I booked a pro fit session with Richard last week and did my first rides since this weekend. The change that Richard has made to my setup is unbelieveable, so much more power available with each pedal stroke and also the ability to travel up hills without so much need to stand up on the pedals. Richard really knows what he is on about and this is really the best money you can spend on you and your bike before considering other kit upgrades. Many thanks.
