It is strange, but among a great number of cyclists, there is a considerable quantity of groups which, having united and named itself somehow, ignores the others. Selecting a group to adjoin is influenced by the advertising, labels of clothes and marks of cycle producers. As a result, people turn into parody of a biker, and lose a spirit of cycle racing behind this commercial tinsel and fashion for extreme.
Dear owners of bicycles, if you are bored with going for a drive to the same well-known tracks and parks, try to get absolutely new impression, which was not accessible to you earlier, become engaged into cycle tourism.
Dear extreme-lovers, owners of cool downhill cycle; do you know that, among the stars of extreme sports there are heaps of tourists?
Cycle tourism is a team sport, and first of all, it is necessary to find those who will go with you. Good team is 2-4 cyclists, and it is really great, if these people have an experience of travelling together. Actually it can be difficult to find a good group.
First of all choose a route. Every route consists of convenient places for halting and bivouacking, there are also surrounding countrysides and places of interest, length, road surface, duration and weather. Let’s talk about this.
Duration is the time which you must spend on a trip, if you are a beginner go on a two-day’s trip or even one-day trip (from morning till evening) if you do not have touristic experience at all. Usually one-day trips are named the Day off trip, because it occurs during weekend or holydays.
Road surface happens to be asphalt and earth. Earth rode means not only usual wood tracks, but also light soil, sand-gravel ground (grader). Passability of earth roads depends on precipitation and temperature. Passability of sand roads at the end of spring, in summer and in early autumn raises after rain, dry sand is a death for a biker and a bike. In late fall, after the first autumn frosts sand becomes an excellent covering, very pleasant for driving.
If you live in a hilly country, you have difficult route waiting for you, and it can be hard.
Extent is length of a route in kilometers. It is possible to measure length on a map, or if you want more accurate result, you need the program for work with GPS (OZI Explorer).
Surrounding countrysides and places of interest are woods, fields, settlements, cities. Something interesting can be found out by you about them while surfing the Internet for descriptions of those places, where your route passes.
Places of halts and bivouacs are the places where you can stop for a dinner and spend a night. First of all, it will be good, if this place is far (more than 2-3 kilometres) from settlements, roads, and if you can find there clean water, firewood and a place camping and building a fire. It is possible to estimate their location on a map.
