By Leslie Reissner| PezCycling News Verified One of the pleasures we enjoy as cycling fans is the anticipation that builds up as the season progresses, from the Tour Down Under to the week long stage races in Spain and France to the Spring Classics and eventually the Grand Tours. Interspersed among these are an impressive number of smaller events, which may lack the international visibility of, say, the Monuments, but are great races in their own right.

By Leslie Reissner| PezCycling News Verified Over the decades there have been so much evolution in bike racing, from nutrition to training to equipment to tactics. Once upon a time, a professional team would have been essentially built around a single rider (think Fausto Coppi and Bianchi, Raymond Poulidor and Mercian, or Merckx and, well, any of his teams) who competed pretty much throughout the season.

PezCycling News
"What's cool in road cycling" defines our content and means as much now, as it did when I started PEZ in 2002. PezCyclingNews.com is a group of internationally-based pro cycling fans dedicated to publishing original, credible, and entertaining articles, photos, features and reviews centered around the sport of elite level road cycling. We're different because our goal has always been to deliver a daily alternative to the institutional cycling press, where cycling fans like us could connect, live, and enjoy the road cycling life no matter where you might be. Our real names are on all our work because I believe making a good first impression starts with a proper introduction, and how else could we expect you to believe anything we write, let alone come back for another visit. Our personalities, perspectives, credibility, and wide story format (920 pixels) & big pictures set us apart from other cycling sites, blogs and social feeds to give PEZ a voice that is at once unique and distinct, but also familiar to cycling fans around the world. We invite you to read and stay up to date everyday on everything on and off the bike and on and off the race routes: pro cycling's culture, history, travel, training, and gear. Hopefully we'll never lose our sense of humor, because... let's face it, pro cycling was designed for entertainment value just as the Tour de France was started to sell more newspapers.
