Cornerz Posted July 13, 2014 Posted July 13, 2014 Any tips or suggestions to make it as quick as possible to get out the house with everything you need for a ride? Always seems to take me forever to get ready...

Malpiet Posted July 13, 2014 Posted July 13, 2014 I normally prepack my cycling kit "socks,top, shorts and uv arm protectors " oneside in my cupboard so its a matter of grab and go. I leave my chamios and sunscreen,HR belt in my helmet so I dont have to look for anything. I only ride on water so its a matter of just add ice for. I get home at 4:30pm and iam out the by 4:45pm for the latest, if its a morning ride then I need 30min that's including going to the bathroom and making breakfast.
Tayyib Posted July 13, 2014 Posted July 13, 2014 If its a road ride from home prepare night before!! NB If a MTB ride at another location I use a medium sized black box from makro to pack everything into.(Convenient after the ride aswell when its been muddy) That way all you gota grab is bike,box and pomp.

'Dale Posted July 13, 2014 Posted July 13, 2014 The only way faster than preparing the night before (even place cereal in bowl or fill the kettle) is to sleep in your kit Cornerz, ahmedbadat, Bernard Horn and 3 others 6
Bateleur1 Posted July 13, 2014 Posted July 13, 2014 Getting out of the house is not the problem for me. Waking up in the morning on the other hand .... Wannabe, Spoke101, BenReaper and 1 other 4

GreatGusto Posted July 13, 2014 Posted July 13, 2014 (edited) Try dedicate an area in ur home to cycling...my entire spare room is for the bikes and gear... I wish I was you.... My bike relegated to the garage, my son's room in the study, the office is in the dining room, the dining room is in the lounge. Its' what happens when you buy a two-kids house and promptly get 'surprise' twins instead of number two. Edited July 13, 2014 by GreatGusto RocknRolla, Spoke101, Pants Boy and 1 other 4
