25.01.2022 Fancy a run and swim tomorrow at Tallebudgera Creek? We do! Come along for some mid week triathlon training (or even just the run part if you don't want to get wet)....7 (ish) km run followed by some freestyle action in the creek. And coffee after. Meeting Awoonga Ave side of Talley creek for a 515am start.

23.01.2022 Some Bikelab rides this week before we head off for Europe on Friday night! Tuesday - meet at 445am Easy T at Robina. Heading to Springbrook for a couple of efforts and then taking on Mt Nimmel. Wednesday (edit) - 515am Burleigh... throwing in the old mid week spin to Point Danger. coffee after ... Friday - for anyone with a bit of extra time, Jena and I will head out for 80 to 100km. Details TBA, message me if keen for some or all of this ride. Happy Monday! Shelley

22.01.2022 These local cycling events are salt of the earth. Choose a 72km or 144km ride through the Snowy Valleys, historic towns and a classic aussie landscape. The longer event has over 2500m of climbing. This Snowy Valley event is run and supported by the Tumut Rotary club. If it's anything like the superb "Ride the Range" event at Toowoomba (also hosted by Rotary) it will definitely be a gran fondo-style ride to enjoy!

20.01.2022 When training for Grafton to Inverell and Ironman comes together you get the gang to go for a good 180km down the coast for some interrupted kms. Except for the Bruns Bakery stop . Well done crew @cookielovestoride @amandakyneur @scyclepro @bradjs13 . . #bikelabinc #scyclepro #coach #cycling #goals #motivate @ Byron Bay, New South Wales

17.01.2022 This Sunday sees another edition of one of Australia's best Gran Fondo cycling events, Rotary Ride the Range, in Toowoomba. So - the taper. Do you do it right? Read on for some tips. Many will have put in the hard yards and climbed many metres, preparing for Sunday's ride. So, it is important to get this final week right and most importantly, not overdo things.... Riding each day is Ok and you may even want to incorporate a few (4-6) short hard efforts in your rides, say 30sec to 1min. The key is avoiding longer rides (2hrs +), longer / steeper climbs and sustained hard efforts of 3min or more. Follow this basic guide and you will arrive in Toowoomba ready to "push your limits", as they say. #pushyourlimits #ridetherange #bikelabinc #cyclecoaching #climbingisking See you Sunday Bubba

16.01.2022 First venture into the hills around Canberra, the much-ridden Cotter/ Uriarra loop. Plenty of work to do on my fitness. That hurt. #bikelabincanberra #cyclingcanberra

15.01.2022 Bikelab Inc has moved to Canberra. For those on the Gold Coast who were unaware we were moving, I will miss you and wish you all the best. To all Canberra cyclists and triathletes, Bikelab Inc offers one on one Coaching, Blood Lactate and Sweat Analysis testing. We also offer the Bikelab Inc online training program, a customised 12 week plan for just $25. ... Check out www.bikelabinc.com to learn more, or message me on FB Messenger.

15.01.2022 Much has been said and written about cycling cadence and what is optimal / most efficient. Some very good recent research has shown that most sub-elite cyclists are less efficient at higher cadences, especially when they climb. It appears that the combination of high revs / low relative power does not work well. This raises the question; "do the pro's go faster because they have higher cadences or do they have higher cadences because they go faster (produce more power). Rese...archers found that most sub-elite riders are more efficient when they climb with a cadence of 70 compared to 95. Of course efficiency can be improved with training but as with most things, no one model fits all. Interestingly, riders seem to have a "default" cadence which also proves to be their most efficient. This in itself is no great surprise as this is where most "training" has taken place. But, when amateur sub-elite cyclists pedal 15rpm above their default cadence, they often show a Heart Rate of up to 10 bpm higher for the same power output. Food for thought re riding technique and gear selection.

14.01.2022 Five compelling Reasons to have a Sweat (Sodium Concentration) Test: 1. Loss of sodium (in sweat) will negatively impact performance through loss of power and reduced cognitive function. 2. Sodium loss varies greatly between athletes, from as low as 200mg/litre to as much as 2300mg/litre. So, without knowing where you sit on the scale, it is impossible to prescribe the electrolyte concentration for effective rehydration.... 3. Sodium is by far the most significant electrolyte lost in sweat. Others, such as potassium, magnesium, chloride, are also lost, but in much lower amounts and with little variation from person to person. 4. Significant and repetitive sodium loss can cause hyponatremia (low blood sodium) which has many negative implications for health. 5. Loss of sodium can cause cramping during endurance sports, making optimum (or even adequate) performance impossible. If you would like to organise a sweat test, please go to the BikelabInc website or get in touch by messaging me on this page. Now testing at Physiologic, Robina.

12.01.2022 An absolute pleasure to be on the sidelines at Ride the Range yesterday. Sometimes a little misfortune (being injured) has some delightful benefits. Just loved seeing the emotion in all the competitors as they worked their way up the final climb to the finish. The energy and atmosphere is kind of unique, as competitors give everything whilst staying firmly with the spirit of friendship and support. The course was tough with gusty winds buffeting the riders all day. Each finis...her certainly earned their achievement and more than a few tears were shed at the finish. I hope to back riding next year, but if not, I would be thrilled to stand roadside again to cheer, take photos and re-connect with what these events are really all about. Thanks to the Bikelab crew for making this one special weekend, you guys were awesome. This event continues to grow in status and popularity and as I say each year, it is an absolute must-do. A cracking course packed with challenge and topped off with the iconic "Blanchview Climb". Right on our doorstep and supporting wonderful causes. Pencil it in for 2020. #ridetherange #bikelabinc #pushyourlimits #nosuchthingasatailwind @ridetherange Bikelab Inc

06.01.2022 Just released our 2020 tour details. I think it is our best and most beautiful tour itinerary ever.

05.01.2022 Attention Gold Coast and Brisbane Cyclists. After a period of absence due to a few injuries, I am excited to announce that I will resume testing from Physiologic, 334 Scottsdale Drive, Robina. I will be available for both blood lactate tests and sweat analysis on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. Appointments available from Tuesday September 24. Blood lactate testing will provide you with your athlete profile upon which a training plan and/or coaching can be developed, tailored to yo...ur physiology, training zones and goals. Sweat analysis will identify a bespoke hydration regime and help combat cramps - just what you need to know coming into the warmer weather! Please contact me if you would like more information or to make a booking.

03.01.2022 Sweat analysis now available to Gold Coast cyclists, triathletes & runners. Message us to find out more or make a booking.

03.01.2022 Are you sweating away your power? Research into the effect of dehydration on athletic performance of greater than 30 seconds, consistently shows that dehydration of just 2% will reduce performance by between 8 and 12%. One recent study using 11 male age group cyclists, showed a drop in 10 minute power output from 304 watts, when fully hydrated to 286 watts, when hydrated to -2% (2% dehydrated).... So, not only is moderate / severe dehydration a significant health risk, even seemingly mild levels can greatly reduce endurance performance in cyclists, runners and triathletes.
