Why Pro Cyclists Should Read This Blog
We don’t specialize in cycling races, cycling technology, or cycling training…so why should a Pro Cyclist be a loyal reader of Loving the Bike? Or why should any cyclist, for that matter?
In a word, Lifestyle. Other than the fact that all of us cyclists (whether you’re pro, bmx, commuter, road, recumbent, amateur, mtb, or anything else) are connected by two wheels on a frame, is the fact that we’re all living the cycling lifestyle. Cycling is a part of our life, and we somehow find a way to include the bike in every aspect of it….doesn’t everything revolve around the bike?
I’ve always been passionate about Creating My Own Culture, and the Lifestyle to go along with it. I guess that’s why when it comes to cycling, Lifestyle is what gets stressed the most over here at Loving the Bike. Sure, we talk about the bike…but we focus on the stories, emotions, and information that go along with it. We are a cycling lifestyle website and so proudly share our posts with you….everything from the bond between children and bikes, all the way through to information and stories on the top cyclists in the world.
So how does this apply to Pro Cyclists? Well, just as the top business people in the world are searching out lifestyle coaches and consultants to help balance their lives and create more happiness….Pro riders (any riders, really) can help balance out their cycling life with a daily dose of the cycling lifestyle we serve up on our site.
“Business Lifestyle coach professionals is a major growth industry. At least 10,000 coaches work for businesses today. And that figure is expected to exceed 50,000 in the next five years.”

We’ve been called “the cycling version of Life is Good“ and that makes us feel great.

It is a certain fact that getting some hints to anyone will be of great help. And that’s the exact point this post want to imply. Nice idea that this certain thing exist.
This blog post is excellent. You really shared exactly the reason that anyone that bikes should read this. It’s not about the racing, its about the joy it brings. And you guys are all about that. I love it!
Wow, what a comment. I really appreciate you taking the time to share your wonderful thoughts and praises about what we’re doing over here. It really means a lot. Keep on Loving the Bike.
I might not be a pro cyclist, but I feel like I learn a lot from this blog and also just like it because of the attitude. The posts are always very upbeat and postive and I like that.
Thanks Susan, that makes me feel great. Let’s keep the positivity flowing.
I read this blog for the very reasons you speak of today. It is a website that includes my interest in cycling but also focuses on happy and positive aspects of it all. For me, I would call it atmosphere and I enjoy the atmosphere you have at loving the bike.
Keep up the good atmopshere,
Judy
Thanks for letting us know what you read Loving the Bike. I like the use of the word Atmosphere and we’ll do all we can to keep providing the right kind of it over here.
There’s no point being all serious all the time. I agree that the fun side of life is just as important as the “business” side of things and hope all those pro cyclists out there start following your website. This was an interesting perspective and I enjoyed it.
Thanks Sam,
Hope they start following? They all already are….hahahahaha. Well, we hope there are a lot of them out there who drop by to see what we have going on.
Darryl, I always look forward to any info yourself and other fellow cyclist have. We all continue to learn from each other All Around the World, Thanks to Twitter and Facebook.
Keep ’em coming, I really do enjoy them.

Thanks Bethel,
Be sure to let us know what kinds of things we can include on the site to make it more beneficial for you.
Inspiring blog. I really like that you are reaching out to all cyclists and not just pro’s or serious riders. I am a newbie rider who started riding because I love pro-cycling.
When I started Loving the Bike, I wanted it to be a place for al kinds of cyclists. Being that I’m primarily a road and urban cyclist I seem to focus a lot of attention on those categories, but our love of cycling extends to all other types as well. But we’re able to tie it all in together by being a cycling lifestyle website that speaks to the commonality in all of us cyclists.
Thanks for your comments.
