When I look at the cycling grand tours every year, and see the buses, I always think of one thing:

Not just that though, I think of other things related to cycling too!

I always think about how many bikes there are to transport, all of the cycling accessories that go with it, the spare bike parts and the sports nutrition and food it must take to fuel a pro cycling team.
Then I look at my setup and wonder where it all went wrong!

Honestly though, I would love to have the ease of having a place to warmup and cool down after a race, and to be able to wash and just to keep everything in the one place.

Instead I am now looking at what bicycle car rack to buy, and how much room that will leave me in the car for my cycling gear, my clothing and my bike helmet.

I would love to have such a setup like a team bus, but would it ever be worth it, no matter how much money you had.
It would be...

When I look back at the way cyclists used to cycle with the bottle on front of them, I always think it looks great.
Then when you look at where bottle cages are on bikes these days, I wonder what happened and did it change.

It seems like it was much easier to have them on front of you while cycling, but why did it move? Was it that it was too difficult to have them on the down tube when the bike’s gear levers were there as well.
Surely though you could still keep the bottle at the stem even with integrated levers nowadays.

When you look at the bikes of triathletes, they very often still have their bottles on front of them as they cycle.
So when you look at these modern bike bottle cages they are always just designed to go on the bicycle’s down tube.
This is how they all look now.

Is it still possible to get a bottle cage for the front of your bike besides the ones for a triathlon...

Cycling Accessories

The first part of this series, we talked about how cycling accessories can help you to maintain your bicycle both in terms of looks and performance, and we’re going to go into a bit more detail here.
