Celebrate Bike to Play Week with Bicycling! Between Monday, June 27, and Sunday, July 3, we are encouraging you to break out of your usual routes and make your rides more fun this week. Whether it is a big adventure, or a day of small pleasures; solo, with family, with friends, a dog, just you and your social media friends ... the possibilities are endless and completely up to you.
Just don’t forget to document your ride, and share it with us using the hashtag #BIBiketoPlay.
All cyclists can agree that riding a bike is just plain fun. But adding some cool bike tricks into your riding repertoire can up the enjoyment factor even more. And better yet: You can improve your bike handling skills in the process of learning these bike tricks, while impressing your friends when the work pays off.
Below, we’ve rounded up some of the cycling world’s most popular bike tricks, including wheelies, trackstands, and more. Many can be performed on any type of bike, though some are easier done on mountain bikes, dirt jumpers, and BMX bikes. Some require skill and some require guts; half will save you time, the other half are just a waste of time. Point is, there’s something here for everyone, whether you’re a beginner or an avid racer. Pick your fave—then learn it and do it.
