Date is a tribute to Pedro Davison, a cyclist who was the victim of a fatal accident in 2006

Today, August 19th, is National Cyclist Day. A date that, despite having direct reference to such a noble sport, does not have a commemorative character. The Cyclist Day, in fact, is a tribute to Pedro Davisona cyclist from Brasilia, victim of a fatal accident in 2006, when he was just 25 years old.
The date, therefore, aims to provoke a reflection on traffic problems. In addition to drawing attention to the lack of policies aimed at social mobility. In this way, on this cyclist’s day, we have separated some important tips for driving safer on the roads. Watch:
Day of the cyclist and road safety
1 – Elongation
A fundamental practice for improving muscle flexibility, as well as improving blood circulation, something that can prevent injuries. At least 10 minutes of stretching is recommended to prepare the body.
2 – Show yourself
Very important advice, especially for those who ride in large and busy cities. Staying visible in traffic, even at night, is the first step to avoiding accidents. Always bet on fluorescent clothes and flags – firefly style – to attract the attention of motorists.
3 – Adequate equipment
Wearing sympathetic clothing and cycling-friendly socks will help you pedal more. They can reduce fatigue and tension, as well as promote muscle recovery.
4 – Drink water
Always carry a bottle of water with you wherever you go. The importance of proper hydration, especially on hot and dry days, is gigantic. The ideal is to consume at least two liters of water a day.
5 – Never go without a helmet
Finally, but also essential, it is to wear a helmet. Don’t play the superhero out there. Simple falls, without protective equipment, can cause serious injury.
