A banana at the top of a climb is basically a five-star meal. πŸŒπŸ˜‚

But in all seriousness, on-bike nutrition is something a lot of cyclists overlook until they bonk hard on a July ride in the heat.

A good rule of thumb: eat before you feel hungry and drink before you feel thirsty. Simple carbs every 45 minutes on longer rides make a huge difference. 🫑
We have some great Nutrition in stock at Northern Cycle.

The cyclists and runners of every household, summed up in one photo. πŸ˜‚πŸš΄β€β™‚οΈπŸƒβ€β™€οΈ

We love that cycling brings people together, even when one person is pedaling and the other is sprinting just to keep up.

However your crew moves this July, the important thing is that you're out there doing it. 🫑

Summer break means it's officially bike season for the whole family. β˜€οΈ

June is one of the best months to get everyone set up with the right bikes and helmets before the riding really picks up.

A properly fitted helmet is one of the most important things to get right, especially for growing kids. Sizes change faster than you'd expect. 😬

Did you know tire pressure is one of the single biggest factors in how your mountain bike actually feels on the trail? 🚡🌿

Too high and you lose traction and get a harsh, bouncy ride. Too low and you risk pinch flats and sloppy handling.

Most riders are running the wrong pressure without even knowing it. A good starting point is 25 to 30 psi for most trail conditions, but your weight, tire width, and terrain all affect the sweet spot. πŸ™Œ

The climb is hard. The view from the top is always worth it. πŸ’ͺπŸš΅β€β™‚οΈ

One thing that separates riders who improve quickly from those who plateau: getting the right bike fit before summer really kicks in.

When your reach, saddle height, and handlebar position are dialed in, hard climbs like this one actually become manageable instead of miserable.

June is a great time to get a fit check before your summer rides ramp up. Ask us about it next time you're in. 🫑
