BIKE Magazine July 2025 Edición anterior

Welcome to the July 2025 issue of BIKE Magazine , a celebration of summer, cycling, and the stories that connect us to the road, the trail, and each other.
This month, we ride into the heart of the season with a packed calendar of events that span continents and disciplines. From the legendary climbs of the Maratona dles Dolomites to the grassroots magic of the Dunwich Dynamo, July is the crown jewel of the cycling year. Whether you’re chasing KOMs in the Alps or pedaling through the night to the Suffolk coast, there’s a ride waiting for you , and we’re here to help you find it.
Our cover feature takes you deep into the Dolomites for the awe-inspiring Supermaratona , a 285 km, 13-pass odyssey that redefines what it means to challenge yourself on two wheels. It’s not just a test of endurance, but a journey through history, culture, and some of the most breathtaking landscapes on Earth. Thomas Hunter’s vivid account of this three-day epic is a reminder that the best rides are the ones that change us.
We also travel to Prince Edward Island, where Peter Johnson’s lyrical storytelling captures the paradoxes of a place both timeless and evolving. His reflections on history, humility, and the unexpected lessons of the road are a poignant reminder that cycling is as much about inner journeys as it is about outer miles.
Elsewhere in this issue, we explore the haunting beauty of Spain’s ghost villages with David Cachón, dive into the wilds of the Gorges du Tarn on a bikerafting adventure, and celebrate the return of the Yorkshire Coast Dirt Dash , a gravel ride that’s as much about community as it is about terrain.
On the gear front, we’ve tested everything from the sleek Quella Varsity Edinburgh to the cutting-edge Continental Archetype tire, built for speed and born from the Tour de France. Our product reviews this month are all about performance with purpose , whether it’s the GRVL hydration pack, Peak Performance’s trail-ready apparel
