When you know where to look, Instagram can be the perfect go-to platform for fulfilling your deepest bike cravings. It's got everything from stunning trails and scenic landscapes, to the hottest gear and epic action shots. Here are six bike-centric accounts that are guaranteed to get you jumping on your bike and dreaming of adventures.
If you’re already longing for a two-wheeled adventure, be warned that a visit to BikePacking.com's Insta feed might just push you into booking that flight you’ve been lusting over. Run by a group of folks said to be “addicted to campfire smoke, chromoly steel and getting lost”, the account is a rich source of routes, gear and inspiration for heading out into the wilderness.

Whether it’s landscapes and stunning scenery, or on-the-bike selfies and epic action shots, Cycling Shots’ feed encourages you to grab your friends, get out there, and ride – just don’t forget to tag #cyclingshots for your chance to be featured.
If downhill action shots are your thing, Downhill Addiction certainly isn’t short of them. Feeding the addicts, the account collates what it promises as “the best downhill content on Instagram", using the hashtag #downhilladdiction. The result of this is a concoction of bikes, bikes and more bikes that, if you’re anything like us, you’ll find hard to tear yourself away from.

True to its name, the Radavist’s feed is a constant stream of shots that encourages its followers to “take the time to get rad” – something we need little encouragement in.

Any bike goes here, from vintage roadies to cruisers to downhill classics. But one thing's for sure – this account will have you itching to head out for an adventure.
