Cycle for Life Bike and Body Health and

Cycling is a hugely popular sport, mode of transport and social recreational activity. Aimed at novices and improvers, Cycle for Life is broken down by chapter into the key components of development: basics, improving your fitness, challenging yourself and getting competitive. Nicole will explain the terms of cycling, discuss the type of bike and equipment you need at each level, help you refine your riding style and take you through essential maintenance. 'Cycling involves three crucial elements, the body, the brain and the bike, ' says Nicole. 'All three must be prepared properly to have success in cycling whether it is for pleasure or for racing.'
