Bike Riding Weather

Bike Riding Weather:
 

We are enjoying some wonderfully warm weather right now here in Canada, the roads are clear and I decided it was time to get my mountain bike out and go for a ride. Before I take it out for a good ride I wanted to make sure that everything is good to go, plus make a check list of what bike accessories I will need this year.

First off we want to make sure that the chain is lubed and that the tires are good. Most bikes require between 35 to 70 psi depending on the tire, rider and the terrain. Of course a good wash to get rid of any excess dirt and mud left from last season.

As I am using bike riding as my main weight loss method, there are a few accessories I want to make sure that I have this year.

Water bottle – You should be drinking water every 15 minutes to keep you hydrated while riding.

Bike Computer – great for knowing the speed and distance

Heart Rate Monitor – tells you exactly how many calories you are burning.

Good bike seat – imperative if you want to do some good biking.

Bike Shorts – along with a good seat these shorts will provide you with added comfort.
