Pre-Ride Checklist: Never Forget These Six Items

Pre-Ride Checklist: Never Forget These Six Items

← Back to Bike Tips

Before every ride, make sure you’ve packed and checked:

1. Flat kit: Spare tube, tire levers, CO₂ or pump
2. Hydration: Bottle with water or electrolytes
3. ID & payment: Just in case—store in saddle bag or jersey pocket
4. Multi-tool: Small adjustments mid-ride = no problem
5. Brakes: Make sure you check before riding
6. Tires: Check for punctures and ensure properly inflated

🧼 Bonus: Wipe your chain before every ride. It only takes 2 minutes and keeps your bike running smooth.
