This list shows a collection of the best cycle blogs in the world. I hope it helps you discover something new. It took me absolutely ages to put together, so if you enjoyed it I would hugely appreciate any tweets/stumbles/diggs. Some notes on the list:
- It was calculated by looking at over 100 cycling blogs
- The rank is based on a number of elements such as Google Pagerank, Twitter Rank, Alexa Rank, number of comments and Technorati Authority
- Certain blogs have been excluded where the primary focus of the site was not really on the blog as I felt this would be unfair
- I have not included London Cyclist on the list for two reasons. 1. It is clearly an awesome blog 2. I did not want to be seen as biased
- Where blogs have a twitter account I have linked to this in the rank number on the left
- You may look through the list and think: “Why didn’t you include X blog” – I realise I may well have missed a great blog so apologies if I have but these are all the ones I could find in a reasonable time frame. Feel free to email me any suggestions for future lists
- UPDATE: I have added a few more twitter links that were originally missed. Apologies!
- UPDATE: Number 50 has been changed to Bike Noob because the Bike Geek appears to have been deleted
- UPDATE: Epicurean cyclist now has a link to their new blog
- UPDATE: I now have a list of blogs to be included in the next update. Keep sending me more!

Truly excellent guide
I just came across the page through a Google search. Always interesting to read other peoples Top Whatevers of a subject I´m interested in !! Have to say, i agree theat Sheldon Brown should be up there… Its a bit of an online bible !
Agreed, one of the best sites out there.
Wow – there are a lot out there – I have just started one which is meant to be humouress so please take a look. Thanks for this list

Thank you for sharing I wish I could go somwhere.
Through this story I’ve been referring to some step-by-step gameplan everyone can adhere to to win again their ex girlfriend. Here’s exactly where you possibly can find it: watch this quick video below that explains the whole process. I bet this will turn out for being the smartest issue you do all day.
But what if you are not one particular of those women that likes to play the victim? You want your ex girlfriend back and you’re prepared to do a little work to generate it transpire. Which is a beneficial and wise option.
When you go in unprepared, or do what most individuals do, not only will a get-together along with your ex girlfriend not result in you two obtaining back again jointly, it is going to probably wind up making things even worse.
Hey that’s really a nice list of top 50 cycling blogs …but there 2 to 3 other are cycling blogs which are missing from this list .
Wow – there are a lot out there – I have just started one which is meant to be humouress so please take a look. Thanks for this list
Hi,
I know it’s a while since you posted this list but I’d love it if you’d consider my blog for any future updated list.
Thanks

Well, here’s one to add to the list which includes my long distance bike trips (so far made in USA and Canada, and the last year trip between Germany and Russia/Kazakhstan border)
Includes the stats of the day, photo (by click on any has the link to all the other photos where can be downloaded in original size), story and soundtrack, and on the American side includes the photos GPS tagged while on pedal, route saved on the GPS and updated to Google maps.
When I get more funds (all the trips ended due to lack of my personal funds) It will be continued somewhere in the world.

Hey Andreas, just noticed the Onion Bag Blog has moved from Blogger to http://onionbagblog.com/
I would like to recommend the following bike blog: MyWheelsAreTurning.com.
I was actually very happy to find this tremendous resource, though somewhat surprised you do not reflect http://www.recumbentblog.com in the list of top 50. What makes this blog particularly valuable as a resource is that it is updated daily with a variety of entries geared to recubment bikes and trikes; but, there is also a wealth of information about velomobiles, more recently thought of as a practical HPV commuting vehicle, especially in areas that experience long periods of frigid weather.
CycleDog Humorous blog from cyclist with an attitude itis good one which i love. thank you good list
Here is my blog, please read and comment what you think of it. Many thanks.

Thanks for CycleDog Humorous Love it
Check out the Cycling New England blog– it has descriptions, interactive maps, cue sheets and route maps for hundreds of rides in the American Northeast.
Very good info. Be sure to check out http://www.gearedcycling.com
Hello Andreas,
It’s a good list, I’m glad somebody went to the effort. I don’t think my blog would deserve to go in the top 50 but if you fancy popping by and having a read some time…
John
Hi – ahhh, you haven’t seen my little blog about a bunch of women in a cycling club, all about our rides and adventures in the past 5 years! Please pay us a visit – and if you can tell me how to tweet it, and the other things in your second bullet point, maybe we will feature in the update?!
chesterfabulousladies.blogspot, @fabulous_ladies, and facebook. I am doing my best!

You should read this. Learning to cycle at 30 yrs old to cycling Britain in 8 months ewanandduffsuberchallenge.blogspot.com. Hilarious stuff
Is this list of cycling blogs kept up to date? Are you still adding suggestions to it?
This is the oldest list – we’ve got a 2011 list and we’ll do a 2012 one at some point: http://www.londoncyclist.co.uk/features/top-50-bike-blogs-2011/
Wot, no David Hembrow!?!?
Here is mine, perhaps not Top 50, but I like it

Hey,
Consider adding http://www.velostage.com/ to that list. Pretty cool stuff on it.
Many Thanks for your post, it is difficult to find a one stop shop for Cycle Blogs, so your list is the perfect start point, although its a shame it isn’t the ‘Top 51 Cycling Blogs’ because I think my blog would have made the list!
Keep up the good work!
Here is a blog of interest urbanfreedomoutlander.blogspot.ca it is a project me and two others are working on. Also check out our funding campaign http://igg.me/p/232699?a=1300437

I can’t believe you guys left out the urban country. It’s a great blog, better then 80% of the blogs on this list.
Have a list on my blog of 10 blogs more specifically mountain bike related, if any one is interested, most aren’t listed here, but are certainly worth checking out if you have the time.
