Epic Road Rides does things differently
What makes this website different from other cycling and travel sites?
- We are honest. Not just when describing places we’ve visited ourselves, but we also make it clear when we are interviewing a third party and/or our content is sponsored or paid for.
What you’ll get from us
We have inspiring first-hand accounts of our favourite rides in every destination we visit plus everything you need to plan an epic trip:
Where we haven’t visited ourselves, we make it clear we’re interviewing someone that has (and it’s usually a passionate local).
(Check out the destinations we cover here.)
We want to be your first port of call when you’re thinking about a cycle trip. If there’s a cycling destination we haven’t covered that you think we ought to – let us know
It’s all about finding YOUR epic road ride
I’m Clare, founder of Epic Road Rides. I’m a road cyclist with a passion for travel. I’ve spent the last 15 years exploring the world’s best road cycling destinations with my cycling fanatic husband.

An epic ride for one person is not necessarily an epic ride for someone else.
For example, I love cycling challenges that double as luxurious breaks in stunning surroundings, but my husband is much tougher. As a British national time trial medallist who has dabbled in road racing and also raced mountain bikes, he’d prefer 100 miles before breakfast!
Epic Road Rides covers this spectrum and ability: you’ll find everything from 20 mile coffee runs to century rides with thousands of metres of climbing.
We also know what it’s like as a cyclist with kids. It’s all still possible, it just requires more planning. We share what we’ve learnt, to make it easy for anyone planning a trip to get out there and ride!
Epic Road Rides is for you whether:
We hope you enjoy it!
