Getting ready for El Tour? Cyclist Dr. Bailey has some tips to get ready

Getting out to ride this weekend? Or just getting ready to ride in El Tour in three months?

Here are some tips to get ready for El Tour come November. Cyclist Dr. Christopher Bailey, of the Pain Institute of Southern Arizona, will be offering up some tips to help cyclists, young and old, novices as the ride gets closer.

Of course, speak to your doctor before engaging in any new, strenuous exercise/activity. Your own specific medical and surgical history, medications, and other factors should be incorporated in your hydration needs.

Make a goal of 2-3, then 3-4 hours of bicycling a week

This will build stamina and allow you to adjust to long periods of time on the bicycle. That way you can adjust your seat height, positioning, and kit, before the day of the big race.
