VACANCY: Enthusiastic cycling fan wanted for creation of Live Blogs on CyclingUpToDate
Cycling
Are you a passionate cycling fan who follows racing all-year round closely? Do you have the time, availability and interest to cover live races in text during weekdays/weekends? Then we are looking for you!
CyclingUpToDate is currently looking for a writer who can do Live Blogs for our website, in the English language. This includes the creation and real-time updating of our Live Blogs for all World Tour races, and several non-World Tour events as well. All details will be taught to you by our team.
What is expected of you?
- Fluency in English
- Passion for cycling
- Ability to follow races live - in the form of watching the broadcast, social media updates, etc. This is however a very flexible position, anywhere between 0-7 work days a week is possible, depending on availability of you and everyone in the team
- Liveblogging during major races and summarizing the action at a fast rhythm
Availability is the main obstacle for this position. You need to be able to follow the races as they happen. It is a remote position and you will have independence to write, but it is a must that you are available at the time of most races. Understandably, this is an obstacle for most people. If however you do have this possibility, enter in contact with us.
What do we offer?
- Financial compensation
- A place where you can further develop your journalistic skills
- Possibility of extending our cooperation outside of the Live Blogs
- Free streaming service to follow the races
- Flexibility - Besides being remote, you are free to decide which days you can work on the Live Blogs
Are you interested?
Would you like to become part of our team and contribute to one of the biggest cycling news websites? Reach out to rubensilva@assendelftmedia.nl with an introductory message, availability details and (if you have) past experience writing for cycling-related media.
Interesting, now’s the chance for all those who were grumpy about or against paying for subscriptions. But, if the pay is half decent one of girls from the women’s peloton might beat you to it ;-)

- Pride and overconfidence strike again. Come on Wout! What a bonehead. They had a royal flush in spades and folded the hand. He knows he’s not in his best form after recovering from all the injuries. These are not normal circumstances for a sprint. They should have played tactics and put Powless to the sword by individually attacking thus wearing him out to cover all the attacks. If they wore him out wout MAY have won. It’s sad to see a guy go from insane pride to whimpering dog like that. Yes Wout is under immense pressure, so make some wise and shrewd decisions buddy! Standing there on the podium in 2 or 3 spot he always has the look of a sourpuss sore loser. Show some class buddy! Better success next timeOnepiece04-04-2025
- Well said, Pogi!!!!!!Al04-04-2025
- Why do Ineos want him.? He cannot challenge the big four and they already have a ton of strong domestiquesabstractengineer04-04-2025
- As Wout said on Srava today "Things don't always go your way... but a flat white and peanut butter brownie can make up for a lot" Puts it in perspective!VgnRider04-04-2025
- Watch out Urska, I think he’s taken a liking to MVDP ;-)Mistermaumau04-04-2025
- Totally!Mistermaumau04-04-2025
- It will be interesting to see how he goes on the cobbles, so far he's looking very strong.awp04-04-2025
- if there is an actual weakness in wout even when completely healthy, it’s that he’s in his head too often. this has been pointed out many times by much more acute observers of cycling than ME, certainly. it may be that he’s been like this since he was a little kid. we are who we are. or that he was shaped by having faced van der poel SOOO many times. mvdp has zero second thoughts. he wastes no time at all on doubt. that has, in the past, led him to do some pretty insane things and make mistakes that wout would never have committed. but it also makes him a killer. you can see wout’s split seconds of doubt and hesitation everywhere in their head to head battles. those hesitations spill over into other races at times like dwars, when doubt creeps in. i believe that currently he is still coming back from physical problems due to injuries, but even when he’s full strength the mental game is an area of potential concern, AND potential improvement.OCexile03-04-2025
- Not only the public, just about every analyst and commentator had been piling it on. Under the circumstances I’d even say he’s showing real character. Not sure likeable Tadej would manage as well during a longer rough patch.Mistermaumau03-04-2025
- Took a while but we finally have a more nuanced analysis.Mistermaumau03-04-2025
