Let’s be real — nobody starts biking like a pro. Every experienced biker was once that confused newbie making hilarious mistakes. If you’re new to biking (or remember your early days), this one’s for you.
1. Forgetting to Check Tire Pressure
You hop on your bike ready to conquer the world…
5 minutes later → flat tire sadness.
Lesson: Always check before you wreck.
2. Wearing the Wrong Outfit
Jeans? Slippers? Backpack heavier than your bike? Yep, we’ve all done it.
Lesson: Comfort > Fashion.
3. Bringing 1 Bottle of Water for a 3-Hour Ride
Hydration plan = vibes only. Result? Thirst level: Desert Survivor.
Lesson: More water = More life.
4. Getting Lost Even With Google Maps
“Trust me, I know a shortcut.”
40 minutes later — Lost in the middle of nowhere.
Lesson: Maps are friends, not decorations.
5. Underestimating Hills
That tiny slope looks easy… until your legs feel like noodles halfway up.
Lesson: Hills don’t look scary. They feel scary.
6. Forgetting Snacks
Long ride + zero snacks = the hangry (hungry + angry) biker appears.
Lesson: Snacks are fuel, not optional.
7. Not Knowing Bike Hand Signals
Waving at cars like you’re in a parade because you forgot the turn signal.
Lesson: Learn the biker language.
8. Thinking You Don’t Need Sunscreen
Cloudy day? No problem. Sunburn later? Big problem.
Lesson: Sunscreen always wins.
9. Starting Too Fast, Dying Too Soon
First 2km: “I’m unstoppable!”
After 5km: “Call an ambulance… but not for me.”
Lesson: Pace yourself, Speed Racer.
10. Forgetting to Enjoy the Ride
Too busy worrying about speed, gear, route… you forget the best part is just riding.
Lesson: Chill. Smile. Ride like a kid again.
