●Tips for a smooth hill ride

The most demanding part is riding up a hilly road.
But some people love it because a difficult hill ride gives a sense of achievement.
Anyway, let me give you some tips to an easier hill ride.

◎For fast pedaling, use higher gears!
Forceful pedaling at lower gears causes lactic acid to build up in your muscles,leading to rapid exhaustion.

◎Use your arm muscles
Pull your left arms up, when you hit on a right pedal and vice versa.
Try to imagine to transfer your entire body weight to the pedals.
Don’t hold the handle bar too tight, you will feel more exhausted.

◎Try some standing pedaling
On a standing pedaling, a different part of your muscles will be activated.
And it refreshes your muscles.
Riding on a lower gear makes lactate accumulate.
So keep the gear at one or two levels higher than sitting position, then put your body weight on pedals.
This is the most effective way on a hilly ride.
You will feel refreshed!

●Say“ Hi“! to fellow cyclists!

spring_sport_memo_img01.png

Say hello by raising your right hand when you see fellow cyclists and tour riders on the roads! Cyclists and riders tend to feel a fellowship.
They would enjoy greeting other riders! When you raise your right hand, you are holding the handlebar by one hand.
It could be dangerous.
So don’t force yourself on a dangerous road and when you are tired.

●Watch out for the Sun!

On a bike, because of the stream, we don’t feel too hot and stay longer in the sun.
Before we know it, we may get serious sunburn.
The best protection? Wear a long-sleeved shirt!

◎Apply Sun screen!
Apply high SPF sun screen on the exposed part of your skin! Your face, neck, and hands (or the exposed part of your hands between your cuffs and gloves) should be protected. Apply sun screen every three hours because you may get sweaty.
On cloudy days, ultraviolet rays are unexpectedly stronger.
Be cautious!
