Roadman's service pairs a personalised TrainingPeaks plan with weekly review, live coaching, cycling-specific strength, fuelling guidance and a private rider community.

REAL RESULTS FROM REAL CYCLISTS
Not influencers. Not pros. Everyday cyclists with jobs, families, and limited training hours.
IN THEIR WORDS
Or read the full athlete case studies — starting point, intervention, outcome, caveats.
“I was an average sportive rider who had plateaued. Roadman custom built a plan to achieve my goals. I've gotten much more out of Roadman than I ever imagined. The coaches are very generous with their time and knowledge.”
Damien Maloney
Ireland · FTP 205w → 295w
“I signed up for Not Done Yet after a bad accident in March 2025 and was struggling to get back to the same level. I was starting to lose my enthusiasm for riding. Four months later, I've got my mojo back and I'm really enjoying riding again. Just signed up for my first race this coming Tuesday.”
David Lundy
Comeback after crash · Back racing in 4 months
“Anthony is a visionary, an educator, a mentor, a coach. He set me on a dietary, mental and physical journey of true discovery. Average wattage doubled and now weekly 100km+ rides are the norm.”
Chris O'Connor
Ireland · 20% body fat → 7% · 84kg → 68kg
“Working with Anthony has been a game-changer for my cycling. His depth of knowledge is truly impressive; whether it's fine-tuning my power zones, perfecting my cadence, or explaining the 'why' behind every interval, he brings an expert level of insight that is hard to find. Beyond the technical skills, his professionalism is unmatched. He's organized, responsive, and manages my training plan with a level of care and precision that keeps me motivated and injury-free. If you're looking for a coach who combines extensive, elite-level expertise with a thorough, data backed approach, I'd recommend Anthony.”

COACH
THE FIVE-PILLAR SYSTEM
Roadman coordinates five parts of the coaching service so the plan, fuelling, strength, recovery and rider context are reviewed together. No programme can guarantee a particular result.
TRAINING
Your TrainingPeaks plan is reviewed each week against completed rides, your feedback and the time available for the next block.
NUTRITION
General fuelling, race-weight, and body-composition guidance coordinated with the training plan. Clinical nutrition questions are referred to an appropriately qualified professional.
STRENGTH
Cycling-specific strength and conditioning periodised alongside your riding so the combined load, recovery and event calendar are considered together.
RECOVERY
Sleep, stress, subjective feedback and recovery capacity considered alongside completed training when the next week is reviewed.
COMMUNITY
Weekly live group coaching, a private group of serious cyclists, and individual plan reviews by the Roadman coaching team. The community adds shared learning and accountability between reviews.

DANIEL STONE

“This really works. I'm training so much less than last year, at lower intensities and not getting sick. FTHR up from 175 to 180, peak HR up to 193.”
BRIAN MORRISSEY
· Age 52, shift worker
“From 315lbs to sub-100kg, and I'm still going. The accountability and structure changed my life — not just my cycling.”
