There are lots of things to do in order to prepare yourself, but you also have to get your bike ready. Here are some tips on how to prepare your bike for spring rides in San Mateo.

First, you’re going to want to clean your bike. The winter can be harsh in many ways, and your beautiful bike may be a bit dusty. Clean it all out, including the gears and mechanical parts, in order to get it in tip top shape.

Next, make sure everything is working properly. Check the brakes first, because without a set of good brakes you really can’t ride.

You’ll also want to check the chains and gears and make sure the tires are filled to the correct pressure.

Being thorough with your maintenance will help reduce how much time it takes to get your bike ready for action.
