Bike handling - for your spring group rides?
From their website:
http://www.crca.net/coaching/temp.htm -------------snip------------- Learn to handle your bike and to read a pack. Learn bunny hopping, curb jumping, slow riding, close riding, bumping, falling (in grass) wheel touching, water bottle pickup. 1. How many of you can do a track stand on your road bike? 2. How many of you can ride in a figure 8 where the diameter of each half is 6 feet? 3. How many of you can pedal clockwise in a 24-foot diameter circle, using only your left hand to steer? And then using your right hand? 4. How many of you can win at a slow race in a circle of 10 feet and 3 other riders? 5. Do you know the mechanics of countersteering on a bike? 6. If your back wheel locks up and slides, do you know how to handle it? -------------snip------------- Another good site that many will know: http://www.jt10000.com/team/news/index.htm Some articles. Site has some great pics, coaching tips, is fun to read. Hosted by a nice guy, John Tomlinson. http://www.jt10000.com/team/news/stayingup.htm jj |
