Siete buenos consejos para andar en bicicleta en climas fríos

Posted 03/24/22 by Laura Stark in Trail Use | Tagged with Encouraging Trail Use, Gear, Spanish, Trail Use Tips, Winter Uses

Cariño, hace frío afuera, pero los innumerables beneficios para la salud física y mental que conlleva andar en bicicleta no tienen por qué terminar en el invierno. No hay duda de que pedalear en áreas de nieve y hielo puede ser más desafiante, pero con una buena preparación y planificación, andar en bicicleta puede ser una actividad para todo el año.

Equipamiento de ciclismo útil para senderos, ¡y algunos consejos de MacGyver!

Para algunos de nosotros en climas fríos de invierno, la primavera marca el momento en que volvemos al ritmo de las cosas después de no haber recorrido los senderos por un tiempo. Dicho esto, es un momento ideal para que los ciclistas evalúen sus paseos en dos o tres ruedas, pongan a punto su equipo (si es necesario) y realicen inventarios de lo que necesitan para estar listos para andar en bicicleta durante el año.

Cómo entrenar para una carrera de 5K o 10K usando un sendero ferroviario

Posted 03/21/22 by Emilia Benton in Health and Wellness, Trail Use | Tagged with Encouraging Trail Use, Health and Active Living, How-to, Trail Use Tips, Walkability and Bikeability, Why Use Trails?

Muchos corredores nuevos comienzan su viaje de acondicionamiento físico con el objetivo de completar una carrera en la que se han inscrito. A menudo, algunos van directamente a la distancia de medio maratón o de maratón completo, pero tanto los corredores experimentados como los entrenadores tienden a estar de acuerdo en que una distancia más corta, como de 5K o 10K, es más ideal para comenzar si es un corredor nuevo que además quiere evitar fatigarse o lesionarse.

Si planea un viaje de larga distancia que dure varios días o incluso una semana, probablemente esté recorriendo los senderos para estar en la mejor forma física. Pero el estado físico es solo una parte de la ecuación, ya que la forma de la bicicleta y el equipamiento también pueden ayudar a determinar la experiencia general.

Trail Moments | A Tale of a Tour: Traveling by Trail in Wisconsin

Posted 02/25/22 by Rachel and Patrick Hugens in America's Trails, Trail Use | Tagged with Route of the Badger, Tourism , Trail Destinations, Trail Moments, TrailNation, Why Use Trails?, Wisconsin

What we like about cycle touring is the experience of meeting people. Traveling by bike allows you see snapshots of people’s daily lives and interact with them. As a fellow traveler told us once, “Traveling lets you see a thousand lives you might have lived.”
