Our Pathway to group and club cycling.
After we help you identify what you want, we'll work together to find the very best way of achieving it.
We offer a pathway to enable solo cyclists to ride in group cycle rides.
Joining a cycling club can be daunting, so we have developed a pathway to help you reach a level suitable for ABR club rides.
ABR Pathway will aim to deliver:
- A system for identifying, confirming and developing your cycling goals.
- What cycling abilities do you need to improve to be able to ride in the ABR cycle team?
- Purposeful cycle training rides
- Off the bike education.
- Identify your weaknesses and uncover any gaps in your riding style.
- Guiding you on issues with bike equipment.
- Developing skills suitable for group riding.
What is your Cycling Goal?
We all have different goals regarding our cycling journey. The simplicity of our Performance Pathway is that anybody can benefit; you don't have to be an advanced cyclist to gain the most. Our performance rides are designed to help you join our Pathway to improve and achieve your cycling goals, no matter what your goal is.
Pathway Rides
ABR Pathway rides are aimed at new or non-confident riders. We will help develop your abilities to ride in groups, focusing on skills that will provide you with the most benefits.
Education
We will help educate you on aspects of your bike equipment, including puncture situations, what to carry on rides, looking after your bike and cycle wear. And watch to purchase for success.
Fitness
Our Pathways riders are designed to help you improve your cycling fitness, enhancing your pace and distance.

"What is our ABR Pathway"
Our Apache Brave Racing program is designed to highlight your Performance Pathway.
Identifying Goals
ABR cycle team principal and you discuss your current cycling goals and targets. Once these goals are identified, your pathway can begin to be delivered in our format, which will help and encourage you in achieving your targets.
Confirming Potential
ABR cycle team will provide a Pathway programme that can help you achieve your future goals. Once your weaknesses have been identified, ABR can decide whether your goals are achievable or if they need to be more realistic and pulled back slightly. Your goals will be determined by your current ability
Development Steps
Part of the ABR Pathway is to help you develop your skills and improve on your weaknesses. This will be provided in many ways, including physical and mental training, both on and off the bike.
Transitioning Phase
This part of our Pathway is where you are first identified, confirmed and prepared to meet the increased demands of the performance environment. It's the stepping stone from developing skills to producing a realistic challenge towards your goals.
Realising Potential
ABR Pathway is about realising potential. The programme is designed to support your pathway immediately before joining the ABR club level. It demonstrates realistic performance capabilities and builds your confidence in an encouraging environment.
Performance
Our programme is designed to support you with realistic performance capabilities for your cycling. At this phase, you should be ready to consider joining our full ABR cycle team.
Our Commitment
We love what we do, and it shows with more than 30 years of experience in sports. Dealing with Olympic, international and national champion athletes, we know what it takes to succeed. There’s no challenge too big or too small, and we dedicate our utmost energy to every athlete we take on.
Strategies & Plans
Every goal is unique. That is why we customise your programmes to fit your needs. Whether it’s a small strategy or a comprehensive effort, we’ll chat with you, listen to your targets, and customise your performance pathway plan.
What is included in the ABR Performance Pathway plan, and how is it structured?
ABR Performance Pathway
We have designed a clear pathway plan which includes:
- A training ride that will build and strengthen your body
- Structured road group training cycle skills
- Development training rides to improve your cycling abilities
- Advice on event equipment
- Advice on nutrition
- Advice on sports psychology for mental improvement
- Structure to your training
This is not an entirely individual-coached service, and it will not be personalised to you. Instead, you are added to a workable pathway that sets you on a clear path to improving your cycling abilities and fitness, putting you on course to reach your club ride standards.
