A Quick Guide to Sizing Your Bike Frame

Consider the Bike Type
First, consider what kind of bike you want. Sizing varies greatly between road and mountain bikes, as well as between men’s and women’s models, and even between individual manufacturers. You’ll want to be familiar with your own wants and needs before determining what size is right for you. Many manufacturers have their own sizing charts that will steer you in the right direction.

Use Your Height
While using your height as a guide is one of the easier ways to get an idea of your frame size, it won’t give you a perfect fit. Rather, it’s just a decent way to determine whether the frame will be too short or too tall. Below are general guides for road bikes and mountain bikes. Keep in mind that this is only a general guide. Sizing will still vary between brands.

Invest in a Bike Fit
A bike fit will also provide all your more detailed measurements. For beginner cyclists and athletes, this can be extremely helpful.
Getting a professional bike fit before you buy can make all the difference

Try Before You Buy
It’s the most obvious and overused advice out there, but it’s true: Seeing a bike in person, trying it out, and getting a feel for it is often the best way to know if it’s right for you. Many bicycle brands and bike shops offer demo days or demo events to allow customers to test ride bikes.

How to Teach a Kid to Ride a Bike

Don’t start on the street
You want someone to feel completely at ease the first time they sit on a bike saddle, and unless you live in an empty cul-de-sac, the street will never be the place for that. Start your new rider in an empty parking lot, trail, or park.

Don’t use training wheels
This is the old-school way of teaching kids how to ride a bike, and though it can still work, it’s less effective than the current method: gliding.

Don’t start them on an ill-fitting bike
Find a bike they can easily stand over without making contact with the top tube and reach the handlebars without straining. No one wants to keep riding on a too-large bike that’s scary to mount and dismount. Even better, get them a proper bike fit so everything is set up properly from the start.

Top 5 rookie mountain bike mistakes to avoid

1. Toes on the end of the pedals
Whether on flats or clipped in, the position of your feet on the pedals can have a big impact on your riding ability.
It may seem natural to balance on your toes, or with the ball of you foot directly over the pedal axle, but this can put unnecessary forces on your leg muscles.

2. Pedalling through technical sections
A lighter gear with a higher cadence may seem natural, but try changing down into a slightly harder gear than you’re used to before hitting the technical section. This does put some more strain on your muscles, but it will also lower your cadence and lessen the risk of a pedal strike.

3. Not looking far enough down the trail
Anticipation is the name of the game in mountain biking, however it’s easy for beginners to get into the habit of staring down at the trail just ahead of the front wheel.
This can lead to problems (otherwise known as crashing), as you’re not able to anticipate the next obstacle on the trail quickly enough – basically everything becomes a surprise.

4. Sitting down too much
Sitting down on that lovely comfy saddle may seem like a safe bet if the terrain gets tricky, but you will be missing out on the best shock absorbers on the planet, your legs.
Not only will your legs help you soak up all those lumps and bumps, they’ll also allow you to separate your body from your bike. This makes it easier to lean and shift your weight around, making you a faster, more confident mountain biker.

5. Death grip – being too tense on the bike
Many riders suffer from sore hands, arms and shoulders when they first start riding and this is often down to something we like to call ‘death grip’ – basically holding on too tight.
It might feel more secure to grip those bars with a vice-like hold, but all it will do is tense you up and make it harder to move dynamically on the bike.

Cycling Nutrition Tips for Your Long Ride

Sources of Energy: Carbs and Fat
When you are riding on level ground at moderate pace you are burning primarily fat for energy. As you start to work harder, for example picking up the pace or climbing a moderate grade, you keep burning fat but also start burning more glucose, which comes from carbs. As you ride faster or the hill gets steeper you burn more and more glucose and keep burning fat. Protein only provides about five percent of your energy.

Glycogen Stores Are Limited
Glucose is stored in the body as glycogen. Even the skinniest rider has enough body fat for an endurance ride but not enough glycogen. Through endurance training you can increase your body’s capacity to store glycogen by 20 to 50%. A fit roadie can store about 450 grams of glycogen in your muscles, blood stream and liver, which will produce about 1800 calories of energy, enough energy for only a few hours of hard riding.

Primarily Eat Carbs
Because you can only store a limited amount of glycogen be sure to eat sufficient carbs. Carbs should provide about 60% of the calories in your daily diet. Carbs include dairy products, fruits, vegetables, grains, nuts, legumes, seeds as well as sugary foods and sweets.

Carbo-Load
To be sure your glycogen stores are full, starting two to three days before a big ride eat more carbs. At each meal cover your plate primarily with carbs and think of protein as a condiment.

How to Avoid “Bonking” cycling

o “bonk,” “hit the wall,” “explode,” or “pop” are a few slang terms used to describe depletion of glycogen, the stored form of carbohydrates used for particularly intense or long workouts.

Once you’ve exhausted your glycogen, it feels like you’ve literally run into a wall due to the rapid and extreme fatigue.

How to prevent bonking
Carbs are your friend when it comes to endurance exercise (as are your fat stores, but that’s another blog…). They may improve performance and delay fatigue.

The consequences of not consuming carbohydrates before and during exercise are, naturally, decreased performance and fatigue, causing an athlete to slow down or stop (aka “bonk” or just plain give up…and really…who wants that?!?).

More importantly, carbohydrates during exercise reduce the likelihood of hypoglycemia, or low blood sugar, whose symptoms include confusion, dizziness, headaches, weakness, anxiety, shakiness, loss of coordination, and blacking out.
