Cycling Coaching in Argyll & Bute
Argyll & Bute offers some of the most spectacular cycling in Scotland—coastal roads, island ferries and mountain passes all in one region. From Oban and Lochgilphead to Dunoon, Helensburgh and the islands of Mull and Islay, it’s a paradise for riders who love variety. Ride Revolution Scotland provides fully online cycling coaching for Argyll & Bute cyclists who want structured, purposeful training built around these incredible landscapes.
Why Argyll & Bute Is Perfect for Cyclists
The region’s geography delivers everything from long flat coastal stretches to punchy climbs and exposed moorland. Roads along Loch Fyne, Loch Awe and the Kintyre Peninsula are ideal for endurance training, while the steep hills on the way to Rest-and-be-Thankful or over to Taynuilt will challenge even seasoned riders. Island routes on Mull or Islay bring quiet roads and rolling terrain that make for perfect long days in the saddle.
Events such as the Etape Loch Ness and Wild About Argyll sportive highlight the area’s reputation for adventure cycling. Our coaching helps you prepare specifically for these challenges, combining data-driven indoor sessions with outdoor rides that make the most of Argyll’s rugged beauty.
