If you're not familiar with the guys and gals at Peloton Magazine, consider yourself introduced. Very few publications capture the pure beauty of the sport through print and digital media the way Peloton does, and its Instragram account is a shining example. They also post tons of pics of some of the coolest bike products on the planet, which certainly doesn't hurt their cause if you happen to be a gear head.

You won't find a more free-spirited cyclist in the pro peloton than Lachlan Morton. Morton raced for Garmin Sharp's developmental team before joining UCI America Tour team Jelly Belly-Maxxis. Born in Australia, his account (and his excellent documentary, Therabouts) serves as an excellent reminder of just how hard it is to become a professional and how easy it is to forget that cycling is supposed to be about having fun—not stressing the minutia of the sport that can sometimes become overwhelming.

Few pro teams will give you the kind of inside look at their riders the way @ teamsky does. And it doesn't hurt that they've got some of the best riders in the sport to snap pics of either—like former Tour de France winner Chris Froome (who's Instagram account isn't a bad follow either), Richie Porte and Geraint Thomas, whose personalities are almost as large as the watts they pedal.
