What should I do if riding on a windy day? Teach you how to easily cope with high wind riding

  Riding on the road, encountering rain is not terrible, encountering strong wind is the nightmare of riders. What should I do if riding on a windy day? A variety of situations, teach you to easily cope with high wind riding. Riding against the wind will undoubtedly increase the hardship of riders. Not only is it difficult to move forward in strong winds, but it is also potentially dangerous. I found out that there are very few downwinds when riding, and most of them are crosswinds or headwinds. When the wind increases, the first thing to consider is choosing a route. It is better to stay in a valley than to climb to the top, and roads surrounded by hedges or woodland are easier to ride than roads that are bare and uncovered. The second is your position on the road. Make sure you are on a wide road, not next to a gutter. If you encounter a sudden gust of wind, so you have enough room to correct the riding trajectory, otherwise you may be blown to the edge of the road, increasing th...

2021 World Tour Team Application List: Circus–Wanty Gobert is under review, NTT may withdraw

Image
  Last Friday, UCI announced the list of professional teams registered for the 2021 season. There are many changes in the list. It is worth noting that the Belgian Circus–Wanty Gobert team has purchased the CCC team’s World Tour license, and UCI is currently under review. The South African NTT team did not appear on the list because they are still looking for new sponsors. There are 18 World Tour teams in the 2021 roster, and NTT team boss Doug Ryde said on Thursday that since the Japanese technology company NTT did not extend the sponsorship agreement, he hopes the new financial support will ensure the team continues into its 13th season. However, even with sufficient financial support, the team seems to have to downgrade in 2021.   "UCI hopes that teams that are not on this list may still be able to complete their applications before the end of the registration process." UCI pointed out in a statement. Regarding the rest of the teams, the AG2R La Mondiale team will be renam...

Image
  When you finish your work week, you are ready to go on Friday night, and you are ready for the weekend's wanton riding. At this time, you must check your car, because if you don’t have a complete set of functions, you will become difficult to move. Therefore, the inspection before riding is also a common step in preparation. Give your car a quick and comprehensive inspection before departure. This will help you discover small problems that may cause mechanical failure or avoid unexpected situations. General household tools are enough to complete quick self-checks, so you don’t have to worry about cumbersome procedures. Keep in mind that the steps described here only apply to bicycles that are in good condition and properly maintained. If your bicycle has been in the garage for a long time, be sure to ask a professional bicycle technician to perform a comprehensive physical examination and major health care. The entire adjustment process described below takes about an hour, so it ...

Ask yourself beforehand Before you go out shopping, it's wise to figure out what you want. When a salesperson asks you, if you have already thought it through, you can answer better.

Do you buy bicycles for transportation, entertainment, exercise, or a combination of the three? How often do you ride the bike? How far? Riding on the highway or the mountain road? Evaluating these criteria will help you figure out whether you ...
