Oprema, ki vas spravi v pogon
Pri vožnji po makadamu gre predvsem za zabavo in raziskovanje zunaj uhojenih poti. Oblecite, kar želite, vozite, kar želite, vendar se pred odhodom odpravite na pot šele, ko imate s seboj te nujne stvari.

Focus up front
Riding off the beaten path can take you to some pretty incredible places, where service is limited, and terrain is ever-changing. Make sure to keep your eyes on what's ahead to get the most out of your ride.
Less pressure. More fun.
Taking the air out of your tires allows for more grip on variable terrain. If you find yourself sliding through turns, let some air out.
Good vibrations
Gravel is rocky, and it’s important to stay loose when you roll. While passing over variable terrain, relax your arms for a more comfortable ride.
Saddle up
Looser terrain means less traction. Try sitting while climbing up steep hills to prevent your wheels from spinning. You’ll get more power, too
Stay fueled
Variable terrain can make it harder to eat and drink on the bike. Make sure you’re fueling up the same way you would for a normal ride to keep your energy up.
Have fun
Don’t forget to enjoy the ride, get off the beaten path, and soak it all in.
