Plan Description

Four Alpine passes, 150 kilometres, and 2,500 metres of climbing

Arlberg Giro starts in St. Anton am Arlberg on Sunday, August 1, 2027. Its single 150-kilometre road-race course gains 2,500 metres across the Arlberg Pass, Montafon, Bielerhöhe, and Zeinisjoch before the return to St. Anton.

For the experienced rider training seven to eleven hours a week, this twelve-week Alpine-Fondo plan balances demanding climbing work with deliberate recovery so power and durability rise without carrying avoidable fatigue to St. Anton.

INSIDE THE MASTERS 50+ PLAN — 7–11 HR/WK

Includes zone-tailored structured rides for your devices, built-in strength with video walkthroughs, heat protocols for when your race calls for them, peloton skills workouts, nutrition and hydration guidance, and recovery-first Masters 50+ structuring.

The Complete Arlberg Giro Guide — the training, the tactics, the gear and race day, explained simply and clearly: what to do, when to do it, and why it works.

Gravel God Cycling Coaching

Hey, I'm Matti. I spent 11 years at TrainingPeaks, where they trusted me to teach coaches how to coach at TrainingPeaks University. I raced Amateur Elite with Rio Grande Cycling Team and podiumed my age group at Unbound 200 in 2026. I have a degree in biology and exercise physiology from St. Olaf. I'm also a middle-aged dad of three, so I know training doesn't happen in a vacuum. I help gravel riders get stupidly fast without becoming the person who brings a food scale to a party
