Bitcoin. You used to get it for free, back in the day. How many hundreds of thousands of dollars did we throw out back when Bitcoin was just an expensive and slow way to buy mail-order beef jerky? These days nobody would ever just give it away. Wait, we’re hearing some insane news. MyWhoosh has entered with a proposition: ride your bike, find a digital gate, and win actual Bitcoin. Does this make us like MyWhoosh less? Yes, actually. But maybe it makes YOU want to ride it? MyWhoosh is the UAE’s free-to-use answer to Zwift, and its used its…

We’re on our third web host. Fourth registrar, kinda. In a typically Cyclry act of cutting off our nose to spite our face, we really did nuke the site for a while. We’ve cleared the irradiation. Got the elderly (Henri) to volunteer for the cleanup, since they won’t last long enough to see the long-term effects. Wait, is this the type of thing we write and then have to apologize for? Probably. Email isn’t working yet. It will be. Give us until Friday. Then, once Friday is here, give us however long we say in the next excuse. Contact form…

Starting right fucking now, with our total apologies for not providing any kind of warning that a sale was coming, Cyclry Premium+ is on sale for 90% off. The sale will run until the waitlist is filled. We do try not to be helpful, but we’re expecting that to happen by early Friday Nov 28. If you don’t know what Cyclry Premium+ is, how to buy it, or what it entails, then don’t worry about it. Thanks for your support!

Poreč once again became the stage for the legendary cycling highlight Istria300, held on September 28, 2025, on closed roads throughout Istria. Under the motto ‘Ride Your Limits’, 4,213 cycling enthusiasts took on the challenge and – true to the unique route concept – were able to choose between three distances directly on the course: 300 km, 209 km, or 135 km. The recipe for success of Istria300 once again proved itself in 2025: spectacular scenery, perfect organization, and an unforgettable cycling experience without traffic – an event that unites passionate cyclists from all over Europe. Sports Stars from Multiple Disciplines at the Start This year’s Istria300 once again attracted numerous sports celebrities from various disciplines. Among…

Because honestly if we can’t get it up for the Tour then how can we ever hope to write 500 angry words about a Polish stagiere getting misquoted in a Flemish newspaper with a circulation of 750 people? Maybe we’ll be back eventually, when our bitter, somewhat one-sided feud with our web hosting provider is finally resolved. Or the site will just disappear when we upset them a little too much. ON VA VOIR, as they might say in France.

Power meter leaders 4iiii have announced a collaboration with ROSE Bikes, the result of which, somewhat predictably, is their PRECISION 3+ Powermeter integrated within the 2024 BackroadFF gravel bike. ROSE Bikes also now offers 4iiii power meters in their online store. “This collaboration with ROSE Bikes is an exciting step for 4iiii,” Janelle Chubey, Director of OEM at 4iiii, told us. “We’re proud to see our PRECISION 3+ Powermeter featured on the Backroad FF and made widely available through ROSE’s online store. It’s a testament to our shared commitment to innovation and performance.” The Precision 3+ Powermeter 4iiii launched the…

As of Monday, February 10, carbon monoxide rebreathing will be officially banned by the UCI. That means you have one final weekend of inhaling poison gas before the totalitarians in Switzerland make it so that you have to breathe normal stuff like air and snozzberry nicotine vapes. Carbon monoxide rebreathing can be used to optimize altitude training, “artificially increasing performances.” We used scare quotes there because the cornerstone of this entire website is an essay about how we define natural performances. The gas has been used by pro cycling teams because it acts as a tracer for lung oxygen diffusion…

It’s 2025. You visit your favorite brick and mortar website once a business quarter, because the entire internet is contained within a total of three platforms. This isn’t a manifesto for doing things differently–at this point we’re more inclined to fully unplug and live on the side of a remote mountain–but just to let you know that Cyclry will look different the next time you visit it, in December 2025 or something, probably. And it might also look different and broken if you show up before then. We’re not using a staging environment because they’re for cowards, and we’ll inevitably…
