Since 2019 Gran Fondo Daily has been the world’s trusted source for the latest amateur cycling news, results and event calendars. Over 1,000,000 readers have viewed our articles 4,002,969 times as of April 2026.
Started by cyclists, for cyclists and always ad-free, we are a non-profit news website that will never overwhelm readers with advertisements, beg for donations or misguide cyclists to register for a Gran Fondo, cyclosportive, radmarathon or any event because we were paid to promote it.
We just report the news…that matters to people who pin numbers on and pedal.
Dan Hood: Our resident Brit, monarchy lover and English professor spent a summer riding across the United States, timing his trip to arrive at Graceland on the anniversary of Elvis’ death — alongside 25,000 weeping women dressed in airbrushed Elvis T-shirts carrying pictures of The King.
Craig ‘Coach’ Sakamoto: Former USA style football coach, now just a no nonsense dirty middle aged man in lycra (MAMIL) covering the gritty gravel scene.
Ron Barrans: A professor of the classics (languages), Ron went to university in Italy and fell in love with ciclismo sportivo during the era of toe-clips, downtube shifters and Silca frame-fit pumps. Ever since he has been behind bars — handlebars, riding whenever and wherever he can.
John Woodson: Former elite road and track cyclist who traded race numbers for bylines, but still pedals to stay in shape and out of trouble — well, at least in shape.
Associate Writer: Articles submitted by Gran Fondo Daily readers, cub reporters, regional correspondents and guest writers from around the world.
How we choose what results to publish: With thousands of amateur cycling events annually worldwide, unfortunately we cannot report on each one. We base our selections on a variety of factors including: 1) event popularity, size, history and uniqueness, 2) broad geographic representation and 3) availability of complete results.
With worldwide readership articles are published based on Line Islands Time (LINT) UTC+14h year round — where every day on earth begins.
