While I agree that mastering the mental game can enhance one's cycling experience, overlooking the mechanical aspects of the bike can lead to preventable issues. Understanding your bike's intricacies, like drivetrain mechanics or wheel building, can help you anticipate and solve problems before they escalate. This knowledge, combined with mindfulness, creates a holistic approach to cycling, ensuring that you're not only in tune with yourself but also your machine. Remember, a well-maintained bike is a reliable companion on any ride. #bikeknowledge #mindfulmechanics
