About Race Day: Podium Finishes & Competitive Spirit
Racing isn't just about raw power. Whether it's dialing in your aero tuck for an Individual Time Trial (ITT) or perfecting your climbing technique for the Nandi Epic, we focus on the technical details. We regularly host sessions on indoor rollers and run group technical drills to prepare you for the specific terrain and race formats you will actually encounter on the road.
More Than Just Training
While our heart lies in the long, endurance-focused randonneuring brevets, we have a competitive streak that drives us to perform. Racing in Bengaluru is intense, and whether you are aiming for the podium at the Nandi Epic or looking to improve your timings in a State Championship ITT, you need more than just a bike—you need a team that knows the course.
How We Train
Our approach is grounded in real-world experience, not textbooks. We focus on:
- Technical Drills: Learning to ride in a tight peloton, cornering at speed, and mastering gear shifts for steep gradients.
- Equipment Optimization: Small adjustments to your bike setup can shave seconds off your time. We share tips on bike fit, tire pressure, and aerodynamic positioning.
- Race Strategy: Understanding when to push, when to conserve, and how to fuel properly during a high-intensity event.
Events We Love
We are regulars at the most challenging races in our region. From the technical forest trails of the Turahalli 13 to the grueling climbs of the Chamundi Challenge, our riders are always looking for the next start line. We believe in nurturing talent across the board, from our young U-14 champions just getting started to our seasoned riders pushing for elite status.
Supporting Our Athletes
Racing is hard, but it’s easier when you’re part of a tribe. We provide the mentorship and support system you need to stay focused. Whether it's helping with a mechanical issue, sharing nutrition advice, or just being there at the finish line with a loud cheer, we make sure no one is left behind. We are especially proud of our women riders—our 'nari shakti'—who are consistently breaking barriers and setting new benchmarks at state-level events. If you have the drive to compete, we have the community to help you get there.
