New cyclists must learn the foundations of biking and train
correctly in order to progress their skills in road cycling. The
following tips will help cyclists achieve personal goals.
1. When tackling a steep climb, cyclists should maintain a
steady pace and shift gears gradually. The objective is to
sustain energy and intensity throughout the climb, while
keeping a decent cadence of approximately 80 revolutions per
minute (RPM).
3. Tips
• 2. Cyclists should ensure a comfortable ride and peak
performance by setting the seat height properly. In doing
so, riders can avoid pain in the front or back of the knees
caused from seats adjusted too low or high. When sitting
up straight, the heel should slightly touch the pedal at
the bottom of a stroke.
3. The body should remain loose and relaxed when
traveling downhill quickly. A low center of gravity is
suggested, with the weight shifted to the front wheel.
When turning, cyclists should shift the weight to the
outside foot, while maintaining balance with the inside
hand.
