What Athletes Say
Having Ian Bibby coaching me was brilliant. He shared the knowledge and resources he's built throughout his career, was always available to answer questions, and gave honest advice when it mattered. Having someone with real top-level experience on your side is a huge advantage.
Joe
Coaching Client
I came back to cycling after a few years away and didn't know where to start. Ian put together a plan that built me up gradually, and I've been surprised how much I've improved in a short space of time.
Emily
Coaching Client
As a junior rider, Ian's experience, advice, and structured coaching have been hugely important for my development. His guidance has given me the best possible chance to progress and work towards turning professional.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you coach beginners?
Absolutely. I welcome athletes of all levels, whether you're training for your first triathlon or looking to improve your race performance. My coaching is built around where you are now and where you want to get to.
What equipment or apps do I need?
You'll need a bike, running shoes, access to a pool or open water, and a way to record your sessions (Garmin, Wahoo, or similar). All coaching plans are delivered through TrainingPeaks, which is included in your package. A power meter is recommended but not essential; I can also coach to heart rate or RPE.
How much time do I need to train each week?
Your training plan is built around the time you have available. Whether you can train 5 hours or 30 hours per week, the focus is on making the most of the time you have and training effectively around your lifestyle. Consistency matters more than volume.
How personal are the training packages?
Every plan is fully individualised. I don't use templates. Your swim, bike and run training is built around your goals, your schedule, your strengths, and your areas for improvement, and it evolves as you progress.
Can I change packages or cancel?
Monthly Performance Coaching runs for a minimum of three months — that's roughly how long it takes for structured training to show up in your results — and then continues month to month. After the initial three months you can upgrade, downgrade or cancel whenever you like, with a month's notice preferred so we can plan around it. One-off event plans are a single payment with no ongoing commitment.
What makes your coaching different?
I've raced at the highest level (Commonwealth Games, National Championships, UCI international races) so I know what it takes to perform. I also have strong running credentials, having completed marathons in competitive times. What really sets my coaching apart is the care and attention I give each athlete. I work with a limited number of athletes so I can stay fully invested in your progress.
Do you offer cycling-only coaching?
Yes! I offer dedicated cycling coaching with the same structure and pricing. View Cycling Coaching →
Can I train on Zwift?
Yes, as much or as little as you want. Zwift sessions can be built into your bike training plan alongside outdoor rides. It's a great option for time-limited training or when the weather isn't on your side.
