Let's be friends!
No matter what the weather conditions are, your fluid requirements increase when cycling long distances. Make sure to drink small amounts frequently throughout the ride. Remember, by the time you feel thirsty, you are already dehydrated.
Fundraising Tip:
Meeting new people can be intimidating, don't be afraid to strike a conversation with someone new. Maybe they have more riding experience than you, that's okay! Cycling is supposed to be fun and social. Your new friend may find your reason for riding intriguing and want to donate to Helping Hands! Get out there and mingle!
Heads up!
Are you wearing your helmet correctly? See this diagram to be sure. Stay safe, Gears for Good is only a week away!
Fundraising Tip:
Send a thank you! It’s a simple thing to do, but also one of the most powerful.
Make sure to say thank you to everyone who has supported you. Send emails, write personal notes and thank people in person. Do it every opportunity you get.
