Precautions for cycling

1、 Protective headgear: essential, helmet mesh: essential, goggles or sunglasses, windbreak, reduce glare, etc. Nose: optional, magic headscarf, try to wear on road riding, otherwise it will be difficult to pick up nose excrement after riding Neck: optional, scarf or headscarf, POLO standing collar also works… When riding during the day, the neck is prone to sunburn Arm: optional, sleeve, sun protection elbow: optional, elbow joint protection, tightening muscles and wrists: optional, Wrist joint protection: Essential, half finger light, but full finger protection is more comprehensive. Depending on personal preference, it can protect the palm and body of the hand when falling off a bike. Optional, if you don’t like to wear cycling clothes, you can choose other clothes that fit your body, not too loose legs. Essential, if you don’t have cycling pants, wear tight four corner underwear to avoid rubbing your knees due to friction on the inner thighs. Optional, if some are better, tighten your muscles and ankles. Optional, Socks and feet that are wrapped around the feet or have strong contractility: essential. Hard soled and low top shoes are a hard requirement, and breathable and non breathable shoes can be determined by personal preference. 2. Vehicle tire pressure: The tire pressure of the vehicle should be fully inflated, depending on the tire pressure and personal condition. If off-road or road conditions are poor, some air can be released appropriately to avoid tire blowout during rough driving. For those who frequently run on asphalt roads, try to fill the tire with air as much as possible. For bare headed tires, the tread should be properly inflated Foreign matters on both sides shall be removed. For mountain tires, the stones embedded in the tread shall be removed from the wheels. The front and rear wheels shall be rotated manually to see if there is eccentricity. If the V brake is applied, the soil and oil stains at the contact part of the brake shall be removed. Braking: the distance between the brake pad and the disc brake shall be checked once. The V brake shall check the position and angle of the brake rubber, regardless of the type of braking, You should check the responsiveness of the handle. Front fork: Wipe off the soil on the front fork (this step is very important, especially after cycling in rainy days). Speed change: Clean the soil on the flywheel and chain, and if necessary, use a chain washer to clean the lighting fixtures. Front and rear lights should maintain normal brightness, and check if there is anything blocking the lighting fixtures (such as brake lines and rear bags). Other: The bell should sound, the mud guard should scrape the soil, and the foot pedal should be stable and not deformed, For those with reflective strips, check if they are loose. For those with silicone seat cushions, check if they are securely fastened. 3. Technical starting: Start in low gear, do not engage high speed. Excessive torque can damage the center axle or pedal. Straight ahead: Cruise is enough, but don’t rush to race. Racing can be dangerous, but it won’t help with exercise. 3. It’s a waste of energy. Bend: Look at the ground carefully before deciding whether to slow down or how much, If there are no foreign objects on the asphalt road, there is no pressure when turning at cruising speed, if there is still water on the marble road… For those cruising at 25 hours, please seek blessings for yourself. If the consequences of a car fall are unpredictable, the car itself is not a problem, but the problem is that the car coming from behind is unknown. Brakes: The frequency of use for the front 7 and rear 3, support your arms when braking to avoid overturning, and do not lock the brakes to avoid sideslip and tailspin

For specific analysis, please refer to @ Liu Pengyu’s answer.

(This item has been updated, please refer to the comments in this answer for the process. We apologize for any friends who were misled by the original answer.) Sharp turn: In special circumstances, if you want to make a quick turn or a large angle turn, be sure to stretch your head back and forth to look.).

Bicycles have small goals and high flexibility, making them inconspicuous when walking on the road. An unexpected sharp turn can easily catch the cars behind them off guard. Therefore, it is important to look back and forth, observe the road conditions and traffic flow, and do not make a sharp turn or stop unless necessary. If there is room for maneuver during an emergency stop, try to lean towards the side of the road as much as possible, and leave a time difference for the cars behind to avoid rear-end collision. If there is no room for maneuver, grab the handlebars, The rest is left to luck… Don’t stop when it is necessary: the basic turning gesture is to extend your left hand and turn your right hand when turning left, and others can be searched by yourself. Except for the team, there are few common gestures used by individuals when riding. Other precautions: act according to your ability and shift gears frequently. One of the marks of mature drivers is “freely control the vehicle speed while keeping the pedal speed unchanged”, Riders who have seen this answer must pay attention!

The angle of the bicycle headlights should be adjusted to below flat light, with an incidence angle of around 20-45 degrees relative to the ground. Flat light becomes a high beam light, which greatly interferes with the view of the opposite rider or vehicle!

At least in Zhuhai, I have seen many night bikers cruising at high speed with lights that pierce my dog’s eyes blind… This is for my own safety, and if the other side is blinded, it is not good for anyone.!

The benefits of cycling not only help you lose weight, but also make your body more symmetrical and charming.

People who lose weight through exercise, or those who exercise while dieting, have a better and more attractive figure than those who only rely on dieting to lose weight first.

I don’t know how to describe it as’ more charming ‘, but in fact, the strong muscles brought about by exercise and the small ankles trained by cycling are much more beautiful than the emaciated and bulging diet! Proper exercise can secrete a hormone that makes your heart open and your spirit happy.

From experience, it can be known that cycling can produce this hormone.

Bicycles are one of the best tools to overcome heart problems.

More than half of the world’s people die from heart disease. Riding a bicycle not only compresses blood flow through leg movements, but also extracts notes from blood vessel endings back to the heart. In fact, it also strengthens microvascular tissue, which is called “collateral circulation”.

Strengthening blood vessels can help you avoid the threat of age and maintain eternal youth.

Habitual cycling can expand your heart even more.

Otherwise, the blood vessels will become thinner and the heart will deteriorate. In later years, you will experience the troubles it brings, and then you will discover how perfect cycling is.

Cycling is a sport that requires a lot of oxygen. Once, an elderly person completed a 460 kilometer cycling journey in 6 days.

He said, “Elderly people need to exercise at least three times a week to strengthen their hearts and restore normal function.

You need to make your heart beat fiercely, but not for too long.

In this way, it will be able to adapt to emergency situations, such as rushing trains or resisting difficulties.

”Environmental protection.

The air quality is getting worse and worse now, and a very important reason is the large amount of exhaust emissions from cars, while cycling has no exhaust at all, which can contribute to our blue sky project.

Safety.

If there is a slight collision with someone while riding a bicycle, it doesn’t matter. Just a smile and a few apologies can solve the problem, and people are generally absolutely fine. If you drive a car or motorcycle, it’s okay. Not only do you have problems with people, but you don’t know how much money it will take to get away with it.

Simple.

Cycling is a sport that does not require deliberate preparation like other sports.

No time limit, no speed limit, no place limit, every non motorized lane is a free exercise place for you to exercise, you can ride alone or travel in groups; You can carry a fishing pole or take a picture clip board for a stroll; You can also take a walk with friends and test your speed to complete the ten kilometer race.

Save money.

The money for buying a car is N bicycles.

Think about it, if you go downstairs to buy a bike in the morning and find it lost, it’s okay. You just bought one at noon, but if it were a car, it wouldn’t be that simple.

No traffic congestion.

Traffic congestion is a traffic cancer in every city, and on the bike lane, listening to the impatient honking of cars and riding at full speed is called a thrill.

The first thing to note when cycling is that the seat of the bicycle should not be too high and should be elastic to prevent twisting of the buttocks during cycling, in order to reduce local friction.

Secondly, when riding a bike, sit your hips straight and balance the force on both legs to prevent excessive force on one side from forming lumps.

Thirdly, menstrual belts, sanitary napkins, and shorts should be soft in texture, and it is best to ride fewer or no bicycles during the menstrual period.

In addition: 1. If the seat is too hard, a soft seat cover can be made of foam plastic to cover the seat, so as to reduce the friction between the seat and the genitals.

2. Adjust the height and angle of the car seat.

If the seat is too high, the buttocks will inevitably move left and right during cycling, which can easily cause scratches on the perineum; The front of the car seat is tilted upwards, which is more likely to damage the perineum.

3. When cycling for a long time, it is important to change the cycling posture to shift the center of gravity of the body, in order to prevent prolonged stress on the perineum.

4. When riding a variable speed bike for the first time, the speed should not be too fast and the time should not be too long. After the body adapts, accelerate and add time.

5. When riding a bike, if you notice any discomfort in the perineum, you should promptly investigate the cause. If there is a problem with the seat, you should promptly eliminate or improve it, and pay attention to rest. After the symptoms are eliminated, you can ride a bike; If symptoms cannot be eliminated, a doctor should be sought for examination and treatment at the hospital.

The disadvantages of cycling: 1. Hazards to the cervical and lumbar spine: caused by the posture of cycling.

Observing the road conditions ahead, it is necessary to raise your head and neck, and a forced posture can cause tension in the neck muscles.

The burden on the waist is the heaviest when cycling.

Solution: Change your cycling posture.

In order to ensure the correct riding posture, it is necessary to make proper vehicle selection, seat selection, seat adjustment, and handlebar adjustment based on one’s own actual situation.

2. Harm to the opponent’s body: During cycling, the upper limbs are subjected to prolonged pressure and minimal exercise, resulting in reduced blood circulation in the upper limbs.

Solution: When cycling for a long time, you should get off the bike and move your upper limbs every hour or so.

In addition, strengthen targeted exercises for the upper limbs, such as playing basketball and dumbbells.

3. Exhaust gas inhalation: The emission of past car exhaust, coupled with the high amount of cycling activity, inhales more harmful substances such as carbon dioxide.

Solution: Do not ride bicycles in areas with a lot of cars and avoid tailgating cars with high exhaust emissions.

Conclusion: Through the above introduction, have you gained more understanding of sports such as cycling? Cycling not only helps you lose weight, but also makes your body more symmetrical and charming.

Habitual cycling can expand your heart even more.

There are also many benefits, so everyone can try cycling.

Look at the car behind you

With the increase in the number of cars in China, there are more and more traffic jams on the roads. Nowadays, office workers are starting to dislike driving and prefer using public transportation, or cycling to and from work.

Many people think cycling in the city is too dangerous, after all, there are no dedicated bike lanes and there are many cars.

Next, the editor will teach you some precautions when cycling in the city.

The first point is to look forward while cycling.

When riding a bicycle, don’t worry too much about the situation behind you. After all, most of the things that happen to bicycles are due to the front car, especially when turning, try not to occupy other lanes.

When cycling, look forward and carefully see if there is anyone in front.

Drivers also place higher importance on bicycles than pedestrians, as bicycles have faster speeds and more obvious goals.

The second point is to keep your body upright while cycling.

The most important thing about cycling is to maintain our balance. When learning, we must learn how to prevent ourselves from shaking on the bike.

On roads with a large number of pedestrians and vehicles, this is very important. Only in this way can your control of the bicycle become better and less prone to tipping and falling.

The third point is to showcase your own position.

Nowadays, whether it’s cars or electric vehicles, there are various lights on them to showcase their existence, and we can also install such devices on bicycles.

For example, installing reflective devices on the helmet on the frame, as well as some more eye-catching colors such as fluorescent green.

Another thing is to make sure to use your bicycle to show your intentions. If you want to merge or turn left, turn the wheels to the left and others will know what you want to do.

The fourth point is to constantly observe the surrounding roads.

The most important thing when cycling is to observe the pedestrians and vehicles around you.

After all, you don’t know when pedestrians or electric vehicles will overtake you. If you move forward as soon as they do, you are likely to collide. It is important to observe others and not let their speed affect you.

Point 5: Avoid blind spots for drivers and be prepared at all times.

When a car is driving, it will definitely overtake you, and it is likely to turn right in front of you. You should be able to predict the driver’s intentions in advance to avoid blind spots in the driver’s field of vision.

When you have entered the blind spot of a car driver, be sure to stand on the bicycle and increase your height to make eye contact with the driver, leaving your own safety space.

Be prepared at all times, including braking preparation and starting preparation, after all, the braking system of a bicycle is not as good as that of a car. When it comes to braking, it’s all about braking.

When waiting for the traffic light, be sure to watch the time of the green light. When the green light is on, remember to place your feet in a position where you can exert force at any time, and watch the opportunity to quickly move forward
