2. Entry to a charity ride (in their name)

4. A Komoot Premium plan
For the route nerd who talks about gravel like it’s religion.

5. Online bike fit session
For the one who still blames their knee pain on the saddle, 3 years later.
Several pro fitters now offer digital consultations, where they analyse your videos and make you realise your cleats are 12° off and your ego is 100g too heavy.
🛒 Example: MyVeloFit
6. Donation to World Bicycle Relief (in their honour)
For the cyclist who owns 5 bikes but says “less is more.”
Buy a bike for someone who actually needs one. It’s wholesome. It’s impactful. And your friend can post about it without looking smug (well… maybe a little).

Everesting? A Rapha 500? Winter Base Miles Bingo?
Sign them up for something that sounds noble but is 100% guaranteed to ruin their week.

9. “Mystery race entry” surprise
For the cyclist who keeps saying “next year I’ll take racing seriously.”
Sign them up for a random 2024 gran fondo or gravel race. Send them the calendar invite, titled “Your Legs. Your Problem.”
Bonus points if it’s in a location that forces them to train in January.
How to gift these without wrapping paper
- Print a fake entry bib or race route.
- Send a dramatic email with the subject line “you’ve been registered.”
- Create a fake medal with their name on it and hand it over with a smug grin.
- Wrap the receipt around an energy gel. Done.

Merry Christmas. May your links work, your ride plans be weird, and your friend cry just a little when they realise you signed them up for an ultra.
