CYCLING ROAD
Road cycling typically involves large races or time trials on paved roads, but sometimes passes through gravel roads.
Road racing is the most popular professional form of bicycle racing in terms of number of participants, events, and attendance. The most common form of competition is a mass start event in which athletes start simultaneously (sometimes with a handicap) and race to a set finish, and a time trial in which individual competitors or teams race the course alone over time. A stage race or "tour" takes several days and consists of several mass starts or time trial stages that ride continuously.
History
Modern forms of road racing began in the late 19th century. It began as an organized sport in 1868. The sport was popular in Western European countries of France, Spain, Belgium, and Italy, and some of its early road bicycle races remain among the sport's biggest events. 토토
Road race type
There are several types of road bicycle races, including standard, traditional road race, time trial, stage race, gravel race, granpondo race, and even cyclocross race. Distance really depends on the type of race and the category of bicycle racers.
Equipment.
The equipment needed to ride a bicycle is the bicycle itself, shoes, helmets, and appropriate clothes. It is also important to get water bottles easily because it is important to provide moisture when riding a bicycle. There are many additional equipment that cyclists can use to improve comfort or performance.
Skill.
In general, the most important aspect of pedaling is pulling back from the bottom of the pedal stroke. When the pedal moves downward, it switches from push-down to pull-back. Cyclists often make sure to pedal in a circle.
