A brief look at some of the Maths that underpins cycling performance - how gear ratios, gradient, air resistance and power output effect speed. Requires, ideally, some familiarity with ratios, linear & cubic formulae and functions. Includes some worksheets (at end of presentation) for printing. Nicely timed for the Tour de France. Suggestions for improvement welcome as I wonder if the content is a bit dry!

Extensive resource. I'll definitely use this, particularly for higher level learners. Thank you.
This is one of the best things I have ever seen on TES. Awesome share and it will definitely inspire some future generations of mathematicians. Real life maths ... we should do more of it !! Thanks.
our students are at risk kids and very much disengaged its great to find resources which meet their area of interest and experience - in this case bike repair.
Truly inspired piece of research and well executed delivery. I have a group of disengaged sports students who I know will totally get this!... Thank you
