abstract="The uniqueness of this article is that it deals with long-distance bike commuting in pro-cycling Copenhagen and its environs. Informed by practice theory and sensuous studies of urban and sport practices, I discuss the 'things and environments', 'meanings' and 'competences and biological bodies' that typify long-distance commuter cycling. This article develops cycling literature and the 'mobilities paradigm' in the following ways: by outlining a practice approach to cycling; challenging the idea that commuter cycling is only for short distances; undermining the distinction between utility and sport cycling; and lastly by connecting the 'mobilities paradigm' with literature on active travel and sport studies.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
