I might be 36, but I still love an advent calendar and fully embrace the German heritage I married into; nowadays, it&#8217;s more about seeing my son&#8217;s face than my own daily anticipation, but it&#8217;s still a Christmas tradition I endorse.<\/p>\n<p>For some cyclists, myself included, December can bring so much bad weather that it can get you down. Fortunately, the holiday season provides plenty of distraction, but a busy schedule requires a plan.

However, when advent calendars had a glow-up in recent years, I had to investigate.<\/p>\n<p>I ended up down a bit of a rabbit hole and realised there are some really fun options out there, far beyond tiny chocolates and LEGO Mini Figures (Okay, I must confess, I do enjoy a LEGO advent calendar), but there is so much more out there now, including options for grown-ups.<\/p>\n<p>I was surprised to find so many ideal options for cyclists too, including options from well-known brands like Wera Tools, Muc-Off, and My Protein. So, here it is: the culmination of an afternoon well spent (in my opinion) going down the rabbit hole in search of the best 2026 advent calendars for cyclists.<\/p>\n<p><a id=\"elk-collectionwidget-3f7ace25f24ba068164d627b7b06e0f4\"\/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Follow us Add us as a preferred source on Google Newsletter Subscribe to our newsletter It&#8217;s November, which&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":951234,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[569],"tags":[64,63,784,85],"class_list":["post-951233","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-cycling","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-cycling","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/951233","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=951233"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/951233\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/951234"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=951233"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=951233"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=951233"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
