It’s easy to see why the Black Mountains, Valleys and Beacons of Powys were the source of inspiration for the greatest band of all time - Led Zeppelin… 

Fellow CHPT3 Ambassador Adam Blythe and 6-day partner, Jon Dibben, had the honour - and responsibility - of racing in the Molteni colours.

Who knows what the next generation will achieve due to the spark that Geraint, Team Sky and our British Cycling stars have lit?

Hill climb season is on the horizon, time to put our summer legs and lightweight physiques to good use before they slowly start to disappear.

Spend a week in Wales and you’ll see why it breeds hard cyclists.

"Gareth, you have been nominated to receive an award from G, as one of Sky's Cycling Champions." OMFG.

Climbing makes you a better cyclist #FACTS. In the mountains, your pedal stroke becomes smoother, rounder, and your core stabilises. Before you know it you've found your climbing legs and descending becomes the boring bit between climbing.

I haven't been to Girona (yet), but that’s OK, this isn’t a postcard or souvenir kit, it’s a collection of performance road apparel, born out of pro cycling's hotbed-testing ground.

The sunrise over Sa Calobra is one of the most magical I have witnessed (as a cyclist), as you arrive at the top of Coll Del Reis, the sun sits atop the misty mountains to the right, leaking light onto the hairpins as you descend down into the port.

I was invited to come and watch the live commentary of the Dauphiné on ITV, an opportunity I wasn’t going to miss, especially as Geraint Thomas is sitting in yellow.

No, not André Greipel… Im talking about that old quote by Greg Henderson - “Training is like fighting with a Gorilla. You don’t stop when you’re tired. You stop when the Gorilla is tired”.

I love Italian design, Belgian racing, and British riders. The Monza Milano kit by CHPT3 ticks two of these boxes.

Wherever your ride takes you we're there for every early start, during every pedal revolution and on every journey. #BuiltByTheRide
