Sportive Breaks has announced Wattbike, world leaders in indoor cycling performance, as its Official Indoor Training Partner, supporting their customers in preparation for some of the world’s most iconic cycling events.

The partnership will extend across the full Sportive Breaks portfolio, and see Wattbike deliver structured training content, performance education and exclusive product benefits to athletes preparing for major cycling and triathlon events worldwide.

Through the collaboration, Sportive Breaks customers will gain access to expert-led training resources, actionable performance insights and special Wattbike offers – all designed to optimise preparation and elevate race-day performance, whether it be in chasing a personal best or simply arriving on the start line in the best form possible. The partnership will also introduce exclusive customer offers, co-branded competitions and integrated campaigns aligned with key moments in the cycling calendar, delivering added value and a more connected performance experience for Sportive Breaks athletes worldwide.

Wattbike will support Sportive Breaks athletes as they build towards key events including the Etape du Tour this July and Mallorca 312 2027, providing structured programmes that they can choose to follow as part of their preparation. The collaboration has already come to life on the ground, with Wattbike Ambassador Tom Heath joining Sportive Breaks in Mallorca for the Mallorca 312 in April. With the Etape du Tour now just weeks away, Wattbike has also supported Sportive Breaks customers set to ride in July with a rescue training plan –  designed to save preparations for those who require a little more support in the final weeks.

Marie-Clare Dixon, Head of DTC and Brand at Wattbike, said: “We’re really pleased to be partnering with Sportive Breaks. Their community is made up of people who genuinely care about their sport, whether that’s training for their first big event or chasing something personal to them. This partnership is about making good preparation more accessible and giving athletes practical support they can actually use. If we can help people feel more confident, more informed and better equipped as they build towards their events, then that’s what matters. It makes for the perfect fit!”

Samantha Varley, Head of Product and Operations at Destination Sport Experiences, continues: “Our customers dedicate a great deal of time and energy in their preparation for our events – be it in the negotiation of early morning alarms,, long winter miles or juggling training around work and family life. When they book with us, it’s not just a trip, it’s the culmination of months of commitment. Having Wattbike as our Official Indoor Training Partner means we can genuinely support that journey in a more meaningful way. Their credibility in performance sport speaks for itself, and this partnership helps us give our athletes better tools, better guidance and greater confidence from those first training sessions right through to race day.”
