Thanks, top tips. Will Magic Mind cause hallucinations please? I am just a bit worried about being on the bike and then seeing things during a descent, for example
Hi ya forest hope your keeping safe I just jumped on the bike this morning and just peddled I did not know where I would end up started from My home in Dagenham and ended up in Sutton Surrey total of 41 mikes there and back great ride out
Yes, I am a 65 year old rider and everything you explained with these 3 tips is spot on. By the way, do you have lights on your bike on these narrow roads? I would suggest wearing bright fluorecent jerseys to improve visibility for car drivers. I experienced very positive effects here in the Netherlands as drivers show more attention, slow down sooner, and keep more distance.
I have found doing just 10 min routines when too busy ,low mood and counting them as a complete workout an excellent way to maintain consistency and fitness . It keeps the habit going which is hugely important . Being older I appreciate any exercise even if only light session is still excellent . I use a monthly wall calender as an accountability and motivation tool aswell which also helps, been doing that for 4 yrs now inputing all exercise and bodyweight , BP, hr I started using indoor cycle trainer more in recent years and just getting a 25min min HIIT or interval session is excellent at maintaining things 🙂 currently since june my fitness has slumped and I have put on weight 6kilos this year 😅 but I am still exercising every week , strength mostly so the habit is still going stong i just need to ride my bike more and get my mojo back😅
I think that when you start, it’s easy to become disillusioned if your expectations are too high. Start small and build up with achievable goals - makes consistency easier. Btw, where’s the 360 camera? 😅
If you're constantly having 3 days off during each week then yes, but if you do consistent 4 week blocks then you NEED those 3 days and more to recover.
Thanks for your tips. But consistency is the hardest thing to achieve! But after that, riding is easy :)
Great tips. Thank you!

Yes I have a rear light on most rides. Generally I’m riding on pretty quiet roads but appreciate your thoughts on high visibility!

Only 3 days without consistent training and you will notice already quite a loss in your fitness 😭
I doubt it. Having three days off after training hard for a few weeks will have you coming back stronger!
