2016/7/25 14:31:17

Bicycle vacations can be extremely fun, not only for beginners who are seeking a getaway with the rest of their families, or professional bikers who are planning on cycling Ireland

However, there are tons of planning involved in bicycle vacations, particularly because there are slight chances of new bicyclers injuring themselves or professionals injuring themselves while trying to navigate a difficult path. Nonetheless, here are a few tips and advices as to how make your vacation fun and injury free.

The very first rule of a bicycle vacation is planning down to the last details. Yes, this is the part of the routine which is not fun at all, but it is very important that you arrange everything in details. To make things easier, it is advised that you keep a small pocket book where you write down details like when and where you will start the journey, where you will be ending it, who will be with you and how much of estimated money it will require.

Of course, is it also important to know a little about your vacation spot. For instance, if you are cycling Ireland, be sure to look extensively on the internet as to what are some of the good and safe bicycling routes. If you are fairly new, you should stick to safe and simple paths which are not too far away from the main roads. This way, if you get lost, you can recover fairly quickly. Take maps with you, install a GPS tracking app on your phone so that you don’t get lost, and if necessary, you can always hire a professional cycling guide to help you out along the way. Inquire from the local authorities about the nature of the terrain and how much time it will take for an average biker to reach the end destination. It is always better to be safe than sorry.

Always, always carry the necessary medical supplies with you, because you never know when things might go wrong. This includes band aids, sunblock, and each and every one of your medicine prescriptions. In fact, it is a good idea to fill the prescriptions to last longer than the planned time for the trip. Also, if you have asthma or any other serious disorder, consult your doctor before going on bicycle vacations as to whether you can go to mountain regions or anywhere which can trouble your health. It is advised that you do not go bicycling if you are pregnant.

Always carry things to your capacity, like sleeping bags, if you will be camping. Carrying extra burden will only slow you down. Most bicycles are not built to carry a heavy amount of load. If you will be staying at inns or hotels, make reservations beforehand to avoid last minute confusions. Be extremely careful as to follow traffic rules, especially during traffic hours. You should never use headphones or talk on the phone while bicycling, because you must be absolutely aware of your surrounding at all time to avoid possibilities of accidents.
