Our Approach
Gain confidence and discover new possibilities
Capable, confident riders through coach-led escapes
Most cycling companies sell routes. We sell outcomes.
New Generation Travel builds capable, confident riders through coach-led escapes: supportive, no-drop group riding, skill clinics, and practical tools you can use on your own adventures.
We don’t design our trips around how fast you are. Each trip has multiple pods travelling at different paces and sometimes taking different routes. Instead, we focus on your current experience level. If you’re fast on the flat, but have never ridden in the Alps or done more than 1000m vertical in a day, then a Foundation course could be a great place to start.
Which trip is for you?
A simple product ladder, built around where you are now, not how fast you ride.
Foundation Trips
Find your feet
For riders starting to explore longer days in the saddle. You’ll become confident at pacing climbs and understand the interaction between cadence, gearing and power, and how to tweak these to make life easier. You’ll learn line choice and bike handling on descents, plus the basics of group riding.
- “I’m scared I’ll be the slowest.”
- “I don’t know how to pace climbs properly.”
- “The big descents are intimidating.”
- “I’m not used to riding in a group.”
Performance Trips
Ride with intent
For riders accustomed to longer distances and big climbs. We cover sustainable endurance pacing, data use, group skills, climb-execution, descending and tactics, and event prep. We’re not here to break you. Riders leave feeling stronger and refocused, knowing how hard to push and when to ease off, how to descend safely, and how to fuel so they don’t blow up two-thirds of the way around.
- “I can finish, but I’m not in control. Bonking is a serious possibility.”
- “I want to start attacking climbs and setting PBs.”
- “I get dropped on the descents.”
- “I can ride in a group but I’m not sure how close to be, or how to manage transitions.”
Expedition Trips
Go big, stay composed
Longer days, often with more climbing. The focus is steady pacing, intelligent effort and controlled descending. Not heroics. You’ll learn to understand your fuelling needs and time them right, from pre-loading to recovery; how to pace a big day and which zones to ride; and how to descend safely when you’re tired and judgment is affected. All of it builds your confidence and the quality of each subsequent day.
- “I want big rides, but not at the cost of enjoyment.”
Our no-drop structure
Pods that match you
Each trip has two or three pods, each with a coach, tailored to speed, fitness and confidence so you’re far less likely to be dropped at all.
A regroup protocol
Our regroup protocol makes sure you know you’ll never be left behind.
Clear descending rules
We set clear descending rules so you feel comfortable with spacing, lines and how to wave people through.
