If you’ve just decided to finally get out training on your road bike, the first step is to understand the different ways in which you can train your body.
Whether you’re doing long distance steady rides, interval training or mixing it up, riding on the road is much easier to manage than, say, mountain biking – it allows you to select routes to challenge your fitness in specific ways, without worrying about the rocks and roots.
You can also pedal the whole time, without the need to slow down for obstacles. This is why so many racers from all disciplines of cycling, including BMX and mountain biking, choose to train on the road too.
