10 most common things to lose while riding a bike, how many have you lost?

I think most people have the problem of losing things, especially if you have lost something while riding a bike! Here are the 10 things we have summarized that are easy to lose while riding a bike.

1. Cycling gloves


Gloves are also lost quite frequently. The most annoying thing is not the fact that you lose a glove, but the fact that you only lose one at a time! The remaining one is not good to lose, and it is not good not to lose (it is recommended to keep the remaining one and try to match it with the next one), of course, you can only buy a new one.

2. Jacket
Of course, it is not just gloves that are lost. In addition, some careless riders have lost their jackets. When riding hot, they take off their jackets and tie them around their waists, ride forward suddenly, and only find that their jackets are missing when they return home.
Another thing is that it is especially easy to lose things when riding a bike in an emergency. For example, when you are resting well and it suddenly rains, you quickly pack up your things, such as small accessories such as headscarves and water bottles, and put them next to the tree. In addition, you don’t check carefully enough, and it is easy to forget because you have the mentality of riding back first.

3. Small speakers and headphones



Many riders ride alone. Riding for dozens of kilometers is inevitably boring and tiring. At this time, they want to relax and listen to music, but it is very dangerous to wear headphones while riding, because there is no rearview mirror on the bicycle, and the situation behind can only be identified by the ears. If you wear headphones, the risk factor increases linearly, so choose speakers or ear-bone conduction headphones.
When eating, take them off and put them aside. After drinking beer, the headphones and small speakers are long forgotten. When you get home, you find that they are gone.

4. Losing cycling glasses and speedometers


It is inevitable to lose some small accessories, but losing cycling glasses and speedometers is painful. I was riding happily, wiped the sweat put the glasses on the brim of the hat, and continued riding. When I remembered to put them on again, I found that the glasses were gone. I didn’t know when I lost them. Could it be that they were scraped off when I passed through a short branch?

5. Losing supplies
If the things listed above that are easy to lose during daily riding make you feel sad! Then losing supplies should be the thing you are most afraid of losing when riding! When you suddenly hit 100 kilometers, you are tired and hungry and want to replenish energy, but it is very uncomfortable to touch your pockets with an empty stomach!

6. Losing teammates
Losing teammates is a very common thing in daily riding appointments. You agreed to reach the end at an average speed of 20, but he just started riding and went 40? Along the way, I was muttering in my heart: "Where are the people? Where are the others? Only then will you really understand what "leisure riding today" means, and usually you will "meet again" at the finish line!

7. Lose fat
When some riders first enter the cycling circle, their initial goal is to lose fat! But sometimes things go against their wishes, and what they want to lose can never be lost! Some riders become heavier and heavier as they ride!
Each exercise lasts for more than 30 minutes. For exercises shorter than 30 minutes, regardless of the intensity, glycogen is used as calories first, and fat consumption is not obvious. After the duration exceeds 30 minutes, the fat in the human body can be effectively mobilized to supply energy together with glycogen. Although it can regulate metabolism and relieve stress, excessive cortisol will also help store stubborn fat, accelerate the body's muscle decomposition, and stimulate appetite... So many people are very hungry every time they finish riding, and then start to eat desperately without any guilt.
Of course, if you ride under the banner of a dinner party, with the nourishment of barbecue and beer, then you say goodbye to "riding to lose weight".

8. Lose the soul
Since I started riding a bike, I couldn’t stop. No matter if it was the scorching sun or the howling north wind, I couldn’t help going out to ride. Even if I didn’t ride for a day, I felt like I had lost my soul. This might be what people often call “cycling obsession”. I just love cycling, pure love. If I could, I hope I could ride for the rest of my life!
