Laurence Kilpatrick is staff writer at Cyclist. Originally from Bristol, he specialises in assessing bikes built for long days in the saddle and all things bike tech, as well as fostering a low-level tyre pressure and chain lube obsession.
Having spent most of his twenties writing about lower-league football, he is now focused on cycling – mainly bikes, bike tech and ultra-endurance events.
His own experience of the latter intensified during lockdown, where he undertook an Everesting of Ally Pally and a Trenching of Holly Lodge to raise money for charity, and then completed the ~2,500km Pan Celtic Race in 2022 and 2023.
Laurence is committed to taking cycling deadly seriously, but also not seriously at all. When not riding in a circle around Regent’s Park, he’s normally caught pedalling to Coventry City fixtures.
