There’s a lot to take onboard as a beginner road cyclist. Whether that be clipping in and out, selecting the right cycling gear, training the right way…the list goes on. So in this video, both my wife and I will share our experiences as beginner cyclists, emphasising the cycling tips we wish we knew when we were beginners.
#cycling #beginner #tips
Get shades to protect your eyes. Use sunscreen to protect your skin.
Tip: practice,/ learn to change tires!
Thought the last tip was going to be where suncream.
Haha i love it
Great video. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for posting, I am new to this sport, at 51 I figure I should start getting into shape, I just purchased the Giant AR 3, or maybe the color is such, being Amber Glow, I do plan on purchasing bike safety equipment first, thank you once again, much love and respect.
The cream part😂😂😂😂🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤤🤤🤤🤤
Tip no. 1 on any endeavour you are interested in watch some youtube videos about what you want to do.
looks so fun there… great
I’m a beginning cyclist and have a fairly cheap Huffy helmet, but I can’t tell which end goes to the front. There’s no ‘front’ or ‘back’, both ends are the same thickness and the inside sticker is on the side. One end had a pad and a sort of V shape, but that’s the only clue I have. Does anyone know which is which?
On the subject of clipins, don’t be afraid to go outside the box. I currently use Shimano XTR pedals and gravel shoes on my Avanti Corsa DR, I have road pedals for tri racing also but have never really needed them in general cycling. Clipping in and out with the MTB/gravel shoes is a lot easier and I can walk normally in them also in a pinch.
lol 880,000 people watched you do what you said not to do in front of 5 people.
bro I’m shaving any hair off my legs…
rest of the vid was great…
I only learned that you bought a navy blue kid.
Impressive, wonder where you get those from?
Thank you so much !
All that as wiping was shocking lol wtf
"Don’t be the guy or girl that goes into public giving yourself a reach-around". Not just a biking tip, it’s a life lesson. I laughed so hard I had to stop the vid for bit. Superb!😆
Hahaha, shave your legs lol. I’ve been trying to decide whether to do it again lol.
Bonus points for the way your video started and the cream scene LMAO
Hi Cam, I just bought a new bike, and I watched your video all the way to the end. My question is, do I really need to shave my legs? 😵💫
🤣 take care of your flaps yall
Under tip 7: 50’ before a stop sign or tragic light unclip both shoes especially as a beginner or on an incline. I learned this the hardware. Embarrassing to fall over at a traffic light cause I couldn’t unclip fast enough😂
helpful…thanx.
Never corner with sand or gravel on the road, my shin now has a beauty mark.
I’ve never laughed out loud at a thumbnail picture until I randomly saw yours. I clicked in then a few seconds later a beauty talking about vagina management. 😜
I want to cycle but I don’t want to wear tight leotards….
Shave my legs… nah mate
I wish we could bike where I live =( We do not have bike lanes and cars will try to harm you all the time.
Not hugging the edge of the road. Cars tend to squeeze past you when you hug the edge.
Best thing for clipless pedals. Loosen off the tension spring all the way until you’re familiar with the pedals
I am proud of my hairy legs
Steeped in bias. haha
Cam, hoping you have a great time.
Me seeing this in my search: will this video tell me why my 😿 hurts so bad while cycling?
Literally the first seconds: your 🙀 needs to get used to it
I was so full of hope 😔
" they harden up"
I hope someone will give me a road bike
*@**03:07** WHAT DA HECK!?*
Wait, the shaving your legs part was that serious or nah? Why should you do it?
Good stuff mate! Do I have to shave my hairy legs though?! 😩
No no no there are loads of things to do to help vagina soreness!! Change your saddle, get a lady adapted one, angle the tip down so you’re resting your body weight on your seat bones rather than on your vulva and get a very well padded pair of shorts and you’ll feel so much better I swear.
Way beyond the scope of what I, as a septogenarian, am willing to undertake. I ride an old knobby-tired, 15-speed mountain bike on street and trail, but I did get something of value from the video. I also love the "umlauted" vowels used, but just don’t adapt to driving or cycling on the left.
No I would not shave my legs either! Just normal trimming where needed and you can’t see that! And no I do not like dark bike shorts went out in the hot sun I always wear white!
No, we can’t agree on that, but thumbs up anyway.
Beautiful thumbnail 👌
🙏❣️👍
3:08 🤤🍌🤤
Bravissimo!
I like cycling but I can’t wear those tights and shirt, unless I’m in a triathlon.
Been riding for nearly 65 years, started racing at 15, a good track racer with many successes. Never had a coach (back then it wasn’t like it is today unfortunately) but learnt from watching others which is not always the best way. Done other sports but always came back to bike training and a lot of gym work. Held a Masters racing licence until earlier this year when Osteoarthritis in one knee hit me. but i’m improving and back on the rollers right now. Not been out on the road for 10 months and that is hard from a high fitness level even for a 76 year old. Whatever sport you do and you want to be good at it, it won’t be easy. Learn to suffer, know your limits, be determined, take advice from knowledgeable people, have a development plan. Remember your body improves when you are resting/recovering from training, so eat well and sleep well and learn the difference between a hard ride and a recovery ride. As we say in rain sodden Northern Europe "I ain’t done yet". Good work Cam, I enjoy the read. JohnB in UK
