Listed below are two tips written by Billi Whyde on a few simple but effective tips when starting out.

1. Ride Your Bicycle More Often

Sound simple? However it is true. One of the best methods to improve on your cycling is by riding your bike on a regular basis. You need to train on your bike for a period of time till you get more comfortable with it. Try various grounds like steep climbing or rolling slopes. As soon as you get comfortable with then you can certainly start training riding your bike with aero bars.

2. Train Longer Than Your Competition Distance

Training longer compared to your race distance can help increase your endurance. This may not be true when you are practicing running as you may injure yourself but for cycling, you may want your training rides to end 30% longer than your actual race distance. This may not only allow you to build your endurance but also your confidence.
