How to prepare for a cycling race
Make sure you are physically conditioned to compete in the level of race you are registered for.
If you've been out of cycling practice for a while, don't go on that 70 mile (110 km) tour.
Make sure your bike is properly maintained.
A great cyclist is only as strong as their bike. Having sturdy tires is the most important component of any race.
