Your bike is parked, but your head doesn't have to take a break. Mental training works from the sofa too – and many professionals use exactly this time to consolidate routines.

Riding on in your head

  • Visualise: Go through a familiar route corner by corner in your head – with your vision, posture and breathing.
  • Play through situations: Imagine a difficult situation and how you respond calmly.
  • Short and regular: Five minutes a week does more than an hour once a winter.

That way you don't start from zero in spring. If you'd like support, you'll find suitable coaching offers here.
