Zwift, the global online fitness platform for cyclists, has officially launched its first smart trainer, Zwift Hub. Gee, I hope there are no other bike-related things called “Hub.” Wait, maybe that’s the point: it includes a pre-installed cassette. Which, actually, is not that much of a differentiator at all, but ok. Zwift says that Zwift Hub makes getting started on Zwift easier than ever. Hopefully it makes it easier for those of us with lapsed subscriptions to get back into it too. (Psst, send us a review unit.) “There’s no doubt that Zwift Hub is going to disrupt the market,…

Report Richard Carapaz put in an impressive and battling ride to clinch a third stage win of this Vuelta a Espana and all but wrap up the polka dot jersey.

VIDEO: ICON Livigno Xtreme Triathlon This year in Livigno the temperature was not so cold as the previous editions and ICON athletes found 3 degrees Celsius on the shores of Lago Gallo with clear weather. The starting line was moved several hundreds of meters down because of the low water level. However, the distance in water remained unchanged and the athletes faced 3,8 km in pitch black water in the swimming fraction. Giulio Molinari, pillar of Livigno athletes and winner of ICON 2021, clearly is among the favourites. However, this year he is not alone. Saverio Zini, national biathlon athlete…
Report Dropping his head in disbelief, Rigoberto Urán was the first to cross the line on stage 17 of La Vuelta a España. The win not only moves the Colombian into the top ten overall but also sees him join an elite group of racers who have won a stage at all three grand tours. “It’s beautiful to win in the Vuelta,” says Rigoberto Urán. “I’ve been looking for this for several years because I’d already won at the Tour and the Giro. So as a three-week rider, to win here is very special. It’s not just this year that…
