It is an expensive sport and triathletes are notorious for buying all the new gadgets to find those extra few seconds. But how about your wetsuit? Is it worth buying a new, well fitted suit with the correct buoyancy for you? We put it to the test as Caroline swam against the clock in her Or...

In December 2023 I decided to head over from Mallorca to mainland Spain for a week long gravel bike-packing adventure. I love a point-to-point journey, so I took the ferry to Barcelona and gave myself a week to ride around 800km to finish in Valencia where I could get the ferry home to Mallorca. Sometimes we all need a bit of purpose (other than training) to our riding, and with a big ultracycl...
