ADVICE

Master Outdoor Power Metrics

  • Use four power metrics on your head unit to understand outdoor power better: 3-second, 10-second, 30-second averages, and normalized lap power.
  • Press lap every terrain change to monitor power fluctuations and pace yourself properly outdoors.
ADVICE

Regain Bike Handling Skills

  • Reactivate bike handling skills cautiously, especially cornering and braking, during first outdoor rides.
  • Practice smooth gear changes and pay attention to road hazards like potholes and traffic.
ADVICE

Dress Smart for Spring Rides

  • Dress in layers for spring rides; adjust for temperature changes throughout the ride.
  • Wear gloves longer than expected to avoid cold hands ruining your ride.
