Cycling and weight lifting can work well together when you manage timing, volume and recovery. The goal isn't to train like two different athletes at once, but to build one joined-up programme where the gym supports the bike and the bike doesn't ruin the gym. Riders usually get into trouble for three reasons: they lift too heavy too soon, they place hard gym work too close to key rides, or they treat soreness as proof that the session worked. That's how a sensible strength plan turns into a Zone 2 ride that feels like dragging a fridge through wet grass.

Challenge Roth sits high up on the list of races long-distance triathletes talk about for years before they finally stand on the start line.

Even riders who have raced Kona, Nice or Hamburg still talk about Roth in a different tone.
