Sundaybike cycling club — group rides and training sessions. Mountains, smooth tarmac, groups for every level.
A Strava-based selection: regular training loops, long endurance days and mountain links around Almaty.
The main fitness check: a long climb toward Big Almaty Lake and a fast descent back into the city.
The flat route to the west is ideal for intervals and preparation for long distances.
Foothills, smooth tarmac, a loop with views of the snowcaps — a classic of spring training.
A reliable mountain baseline from the Strava archive: steady climbing, controlled tempo and a finish by the rink.
For riders who like long gradients: Medeu, then higher into the mountains, with plenty of vertical.
Short repeats and power work: good for climbing technique, cadence and heart-rate control.
Fast flat work to the north-west: easy to hold formation, rotation and intervals.
Rolling training without huge distance: a solid Sport-group ride for strength endurance.
A green mountain link with dense climbing: scenic, technical and clearly harder than the flats.
A long eastern route: steady group work, climbs near the valley and a proper endurance day.
A big day on the bike: long distance, steady pace and long turns in the group.
A hard Strava mountain link for strong groups: long, high and loaded with climbing.

Safety and ride format — a 5-minute read. This is important even if you are not a beginner.
If you're completely new to the bike, we start with one one-on-one session before the group — 20,000 ₸. After it, joining the beginner group at the velodrome is much easier.
Beginner classes are the foundation — without them it's too early to go out on the road:
Those who progress faster move up to the next group — and that's where the road begins: the open roads of Almaty and the region.
Road bike, helmet, enough water. Your first ride is in the slowest group.
