Preparing for the lesson
You’ll want to make sure the participant (or you, if it’s your lesson) is:
- well-rested and well-fed. The lesson takes a fair amount of concentration and energy; these are important factors for success.
- Please avoid scheduling a lesson that will follow another training or sports commitment.
- provided with water/drinks/snacks to keep them hydrated, and keep their energy up (don’t forget some for anyone accompanying them).
What to wear:
- pants that are close-fitting at the ankles (to keep them out of the bike’s chain), or
- shorts (if it’s warm) that are reasonably close-fitting; avoid basketball-style shorts with wide legs and a low crotch, as these can catch on the seat.
- layered tops to adjust for changes in temperature.
- closed-toed shoes (not sandals) that fit well and are not loose.
- sunblock, with enough available for reapplying during the lesson.
