In the bright sunshine and in the warm spring breeze, riding your own bike to feel the vitality, which is probably one of the best riding experiences of the year.
Temperature recovery, muscle recovery...face the brutal pulls and extreme challenges obviously is not the meaning of a spring outing. Packing up your mood, the breeze is blowing, and singing along the way is what you imagined to be a spring outing. What preparations should we make before the spring outing?
1. Comprehensive inspection of your bike
If you have listened to suggestions for maintenance of the whole bike before entering the winter, then perform daily inspections before departure: whether the screws are tightened, whether the brake pads are durable, whether the whole bike has abnormal noise or rust. Just fill the tires and apply oil to the chain.
If unfortunately your car is not maintained after the last ride in the winter, then there is no need to say more, send your bike to the bike shop, and some technicians are willing to share the worries for you. The muddy water stains remaining in the winter may contain acid corrosion, which can damage the kit and penetrate into the gaps in the frame, accelerating the wear and tear during riding.
2. Choice of personal equipment
Cold? It's cold. Warmth is reserved for those who drive cars! In fact, due to the huge latitude difference between the north and the south, now it's April, most riders in the north will choose long-sleeved fleece jerseys, while short-sleeved shorts in the south is the best choice. Choosing the right collocation for cycling clothes can help you avoid falling ill in the aftermath of the cold spring.
The helmet is always an indispensable riding equipment, as long as the pedals are turned, the helmet must be worn!
3. Selection of functional accessories
The computer can help you accurately grasp the real-time riding dynamics, telling you the current speed, accumulated mileage, heart rate power, as well as temperature, altitude, calories, and so on. A good stopwatch is a good partner for the rider.
If you have a puncture on the road unfortunately, a set of tire repair tools + portable pump is your "resurrection armor".
