L’Étape Slovakia Training Rides Are in Full Swing!
The road to the start line of L’Étape Slovakia by Tour de France 2025 doesn’t begin on race day – it starts months in advance. One of the best ways to get ready is by joining our community training rides, taking place regularly across Slovakia.

Group Rides in Seven Cities
Since April, cyclists have been meeting regularly in Bratislava, Nitra, Trnava, Žilina, Martin, Poprad, and Košice to log kilometers, improve fitness and technique, and most importantly – enjoy riding in great company.
Each city has its own rhythm – some offer weekly rides, others meet monthly, depending on local organizers and community leaders.
Special Rides in Bratislava
In Bratislava, there are several ride formats for different levels:
-
Beginner rides, hosted by our partner Isadore and led by the Velits brothers, start from the stylish Isadore Community Hub.
-
Women-only rides are also organized from the Hub – beginner rides by Isadore, and more advanced group rides under the wing of the Bratislavské Bohyne cycling group. These rides create a safe and supportive space for women of all performance levels.
-
For more experienced cyclists, there are also monthly weekend training rides led by Michal Uličný, and weekday rides organized by the Najšport community.

Where to Find Ride Info?
Each group has its own communication channel – most commonly on Strava, where you’ll find ride details including GPX files, distance, and pace. Every week, we also publish a summary of upcoming rides on our social media, along with direct links to join.
