Cycling Coaching in Inverness
Known as the capital of the Highlands, Inverness is the starting point for some of Scotland’s most iconic cycling adventures—from local loops along the Beauly Firth to the full North Coast 500. Ride Revolution Scotland offers online cycling coaching tailored to riders in and around Inverness, helping you harness the Highlands as the ultimate training ground.
Why Inverness Is a Dream Base for Cyclists
Inverness sits at the hub of a network of roads and routes that offer everything from gentle endurance rides to serious mountain challenges. Scenic loops along the shores of the Beauly and Moray Firths are perfect for longer, steady efforts, while roads heading west towards Strathglass, Cannich and Glen Affric quickly deliver bigger climbs and remote, rolling terrain.
For many riders, the ultimate challenge is the North Coast 500—a 500-mile loop of the northern Highlands that starts and finishes in Inverness. Even if you’re not tackling the full route, training on sections of NC500-style terrain builds the resilience, climbing strength and pacing you’ll need for major events and multi-day rides.
Online Coaching Designed for Inverness Riders
Our coaching is fully online, making it ideal whether you live in Inverness itself or in nearby communities such as Beauly, Dingwall or Nairn. You’ll keep riding your favourite local routes; we’ll apply structure, analysis and progression so your fitness develops in a deliberate, sustainable way.
What You Can Expect
- Custom training plan: Built around your goals—whether that’s NC500, local sportives, touring, racing or simply getting stronger on Highland roads.
- Terrain-aware workouts: We’ll show you how to use local climbs, rolling glens and coastal roads for specific training sessions.
- Performance analysis: Regular review of your power and heart-rate data to guide your training load and highlight improvements.
- Seasonal structure: Well-planned winter blocks with turbo work and shorter outdoor rides, leading into longer Highland days as the light returns.
- Ongoing online support: Plan updates, answers to your questions and guidance as your riding develops.
Inverness Cycling Goals We Support

Part of the Inverness Cycling Community
Inverness has an active cycling community with club rides, social spins and training groups heading out in multiple directions from the city. If you ride with a local club or group, we’ll incorporate those rides into your weekly structure as key training sessions. If you prefer solo efforts, we’ll design sessions that use the natural variety of Highland terrain to keep things mentally fresh.
Online Coaching for Riders Across the Highlands
Whether you’re based in Inverness, on the Black Isle, along the Moray Firth or further out into the glens, our online coaching reaches you wherever you are. You don’t need to relocate or travel to access structured, professional-level training—just a connection, a bike computer and the willingness to follow a smart plan.
