Rapha Continental
Epic riding
In 2007, Rapha, maker of the finest cycling apparel and accessories in the world, embarked on a unique adventure. The Rapha Continental is our account of the United States' most epic rides and routes, published as a online journal and organized as a library. From inspiration to information, the Continental is our commitment to the lost art of cycling and the glory of suffering. Join us.
2010 Summer Season
Over the last three years the Rapha Continental has explored the most beautiful routes in North America. The chronicle of our ongoing journey has now grown to fifty rides and our journal is brimming with stories, photography and films. For 2010 a slightly different approach will be taken, but with the same goal of riding and sharing stories of the most beautiful rides in the country. This year the Continental will ride a series of organized events and sportives. So join us at these classic American rides:

Latest
Ride the Rockies
We, the Continental, were excited to participate in the 25th year of Ride the Rockies. We were even more excited when Chandler Smith (ride director) told us that this year was going to be the longest and most challenging 7 day tour they've crafted yet.
B2B
The Continental rode the Harpoon B2B, a multi-state 150 mile ride starting at the Harpoon brewery in Boston, MA and ending at the Harpoon brewery in Windsor, VT. A bike ride sandwiched by beer drinking was perfectly suited to the Rapha Continental.
