Do you fight your bike?

October 23, 2015

Todays tip is about fighting your bike.
This tip came up the other day when I was out on a ride on my local roads.

I was riding along at spinning in an easy gear and came upon another rider. From a distance I could see him swerving all over the road. As I got closer I could see him engaging every muscle in his body and twisting the bike all over the place.

There is another much more pleasant way to ride that is also a lot more efficient.

I call it finessing the bike

What cadence has to to with it
How you grip the bars is important
How you can stop fighting and start working with your bike.
