2. Reasonable Arrangement Of Riding Time

If riding in summer, please try to make full use of morning and evening time to go cycling. At noon, you can choose a suitable place to rest, which is not easily sunburned with avoiding high temperatures.

3. Prevent Sunburn

When riding in summer, don't ignore UV protection during the hot weather. Slather on your sunscreen at least 20 minutes before you head out for your riding. In addition, because the sun protection index is different and the effect time is also different, it is best to use at least SPF30 outdoors.

4. Ride Together

If you love riding together, a small group is necessary. You can share the fun on the road with each other, and safer than one person. If there are some troubles on the way, you can help and depend on each other.

5. Fully Equipped

Equipment is very important. Bring the necessary items, and do n’t bring extra things. And things like water bottles, pumps, caps, sunglasses, sunscreen, etc., which are essential for riding in summer. The most common load-bearing (carrying equipment) method is the rear rack +saddle bag+backpack, and the way of carrying the trailer is also popular.

6. Cycling Skills

The pedaling skill refers to sitting on the cushion and stepping on smoothly, no matter what kind of terrain, it can keep smooth. There is no extra movement during the pedaling process, and the high pedaling skill represents the consumption of less energy at the same power output.

Perfect pedaling skills are arguably the most important part of cycling skills. Everyone is eager to make their pedaling process smooth and even, which not only looks smooth but also improves your cycling efficiency. Riding efficiency is similar to the fuel consumption of cycling, which means that at the same power, you will consume less energy, which also means that you ride faster.

7. Ensure Adequate Drinking Water

Because the temperature is high in summer and the water loss is faster, so the water loss in summer is often much higher than that in the other three seasons with the same distance. There's no doubt that the most important point of summer cycling is to replenish the water.

The normal water requirement is 1000 to 2000 ml, then the summer needs to add 2000 to 3000 ml, which includes that you also need to get water supplementary through food to achieve this requirement. But for the exercise of cycling, the amount of water through food is not enough, you need more water to drink.

8. Avoid Drinking Immediately After Exercise

Carbonated beverages:
Although such beverages can quickly take away a lot of calories in the body, due to the high gas content, there will be a feeling of bloating after drinking, which results in the false appearance ---" a lot of water has been replenished".

Juice:
This kind of beverage is rich in sugar and has a high viscosity. Drinking after exercise will increase the speed of gastrointestinal motility and cause discomfort.

Ice water:
Drinking a lot after exercise will cause gastrointestinal dysfunction.

Beer:
For one thing, alcohol will reduce people's ability to exercise. Studies have shown that alcohol can reduce strength, speed, muscle endurance, and cardiovascular endurance. For another, alcohol in beer can stimulate the kidneys to produce urine and accelerate the loss of water in the body. Some studies have shown that the body can lose 3% of its body weight due to water loss within 4 hours after drinking alcohol.

Coffee and tea:
Both types of beverages contain caffeine. Caffeine has a diuretic effect, which can lead to insufficient water supplementation in the body.
