Fall Cycling Tips


Fall Cycling Tips

This time of year the conditions change often — whether it's cool, warm, rainy, snowy, or leaves are on the ground, it all affects how you ride. It’s important to be prepared for and stay safe in all of these conditions, and more. Here are our shoulder fall cycling tips.

We’re working to provide everything you need to keep riding this winter. Read our winter riding tips, try it out at our annual family-friendly Coldest Day of the Year Ride (date to be announced January 2019), post a selfie showing us how you stay warm while riding (tag us @CycleToronto), and challenge yourself to ride on Winter Bike to Work Day

Don't let wet leaves get in the way of a smooth journey.

 

While fall colours make Toronto a beautiful place to be outdoors this time of year, falling leaves can create slippery conditions for city cyclists. Turning, braking, and accelerating can become more challenging maneuvers that were previously done with ease, while other hazards can become hidden under damp orange foliage.
