ВелоПокатуха: Красный Сулин-Зверево-Чичерино-Лихая (Туда и обратно)

26th May - Sunday! Another PVD will take place. A muscle-powered ride)) Route: Krasny Sulin-Zverevo-Chicheryno-Likhaya!

General assembly at 7:00 AM! (The meeting point remains unchanged. The old, practically abandoned and ruined 'tower' in the area of 50 years of October (opposite the cemetery).

Start time: 7:30 + 10 min for the latecomers.

Mileage: women-74.4 km (round trip)

Asphalt/ground: 50/50

Pace: leisurely

You can participate on absolutely any bicycle. The main and primary requirement is that your 'iron horses' are in good technical condition!

Outside, it's practically June. It's quite hot outside during the day. So let me clarify immediately regarding clothing for the bike ride:

Synthetic sports clothing is best suited. Don't overload yourself with unnecessary items, the best set would be: shorts, T-shirt, a head covering would not be redundant on a sunny day.

Secondly. Of course, on such long distances the question arises: What should you take with you?

First of all, you need to ensure sufficient food and water. The best food is carbohydrate-rich: fresh fruits, dried fruits, chocolate, cookies, etc. It is not recommended to take fatty and perishable food. For drinks - still water, juices. Also consider the characteristics of your body. If you have a bike first aid kit (patch kit, tube glue), it will also come in handy.

Thirdly. About the pace and mileage. Don't be scared. The mileage and pace are calculated for an average person, of normal physical condition.

All that is required from you is the full operability of your bicycle and psychological preparation (for those who ride such distances for the first time).

Briefly about the upcoming route.

What does the route represent? - The route runs on asphalt and dirt roads in a 50/50 ratio. Dirt roads are paths and trails that run through forests, fields, and meadows, which are always present in every trip. We will periodically stop on the route for small breaks, photography (there will be many interesting angles along the way), and also visit attractions.

IMPORTANT!

TO THE TRAFFIC RULES on the highway!

• comply with the traffic rules;
• proceed in a single line as close to the right edge of the roadway as possible;
• maintain a distance of at least 2-3 meters between cyclists!!! (on descents - 7-10 meters!!!);
• do not overtake the leader and do not move aside without prior notice;

Carefully check the condition of your bicycle, paying attention first and foremost to the wheel mounts, steering, and brakes. Both brakes should work on any type of bicycle. The bicycle should be equipped with a pump, a set of tools, and a spare inner tube (or a repair kit for inner tubes).

See you on Sunday! Wishing everyone good sport and great rides!
