The following is a schedule of all cycling events at the 2008 Beijing Olympics.

Not all sprint finishes are won by sprinters. This article coves two different approaches to winning sprint finishes based on the type of rider you are.

I'm getting dropped out riding. Which of the programs in the Cyclist's Guide to Home Training e-book that I bought from you might be a good place to start with?

When is come to weight training for cyclists there is a raging debate on as to what sort of strength training produces the greatest results. The first thing to remember with strength training is that a sprinter will be training differently to an endurance rodie. Sprinters by nature need to recruit large amounts of power in excess of 2kw at world championship level. For that they will spend a huge part of their training life in the gym performing strength training. As for a rodie, which we would best describe as an endurance athlete, strength training is also an important part of helping to develop power on the bike. A rodie still has to sprint at the end of a race, still have to chase down or initiate attacks and needs sustained power to climb hills and to time trial well. It's a proven scientific fact that endurance cyclist can greatly benefit from doing weight training as well. Weight training even applies to the recreational cyclist who rides cycling endurance events like the AUDAX, Round the Bay in a Day, Sydney to Wollongong and our very own original spring and summer Alpine Bright Boot Camp. Also, one of the great spinoffs from weight training is the ability to ride faster for longer and with more comfort. This article discusses the myths of weight training and how to specifically train for cycling.

Cycling interval training at your VO2MAX zone is one of the few ways to improve your VO2 measure. This short article briefly discusses VO2MAX training and the energy system involved. Simply put and without going into to much scientific jargon your VO2MAX energy system is different to other energy systems you use while riding. It is the energy system you primary rely on when racing at high intensities and has a high blend of anaerobic respiration; that is burning energy without oxygen. It's kind of like adding nitro to petrol. You use it to go really fast. But there is a down side to it...
