Please Do Not Look Behind When Cycling in Traffic - 0 views

  •  
    Some beginner riders constantly watch the road behind them, or fixate on their rearview mirrors, as if expecting Interpol to be chasing them. This comes at the expense of watching what's ahead, and usually stems from the falsehood that General Motors owns the highway and a mere bicycle can only trespass upon it if it dives onto the shoulder whenever an overtaking car approaches. A better idea: buy a LED blinker, and don't sweat it.

    An important step to achieving any goal is to make a mental commitment to it. But the first step is to set a realistic goal. You don't have to give up your car cold turkey. Maybe start by promising to ride your bike to work one day a week. Later increase that to two or three days a week. That gives you some flexibility to adjust your biking schedule based on the weather and how you feel.

Proper Tire Pressure Improves Your Bicycling - 0 views

  •  
    How much tire pressure should you run? Start by trying the manufacturer's recommended pressure, which you'll find printed on the tire sidewall (it's often on a small label but it might be molded into the casing, too, so look closely). This suggested inflation range is a good starting point. If it's a wide range, for example 40 to 60 psi, experiment to find which pressure works and feels best.

Also, consider adding bar ends to provide additional spots to hang on.

Things to Consider When Biking with Kids - 0 views

  •  
    Whether you're using a childseat, a trailercycle or a trailer to take your kids along, you'll probably want to do so on a bicycle equipped with flat handlebars. These are higher and wider than dropped bars and provide more control against the destabilizing forces of the additional weight you're carrying. You feel this the most with a trailercycle.

Addiction for Cycling - 0 views

  •  
    We all get addicted really easily to things we love. Some of those may be more addictive than others. I can't really tell what is like to be addicted to alcohol, cigarettes, drugs or anything like that since I never tried to. So when I am trying to write about addiction is not really addiction, although some scientists are reporting that athletes with hard working training sessions are addicted and can't live without the bike.

After going over his medical history and lifestyle, I discovered that he spent long hours on a new racing bike every weekend.
