Red face Pre-ride superstitions ?

Since it's slow around here.
Do you have any pre-ride routines you do because you're superstitious?

I'm not overly superstitious. But, I always put on my right knee brace and boot on first before I ride.

I always make sure the straps on my jock are pulled tight between my butt-cheeks. I hate having a visible panty line.........

Default Pre-ride superstitions ?

I still take my Uncles gear bag and all his gear with me every time I ride. He passed away a few years ago. Also have to stop at Wendy's on my way home from every ride. Lol

I like to have my kids put a few little stickers on my bike. It makes me feel safer.

they day we decided to pick up a spare tire for the trailer my dad got a flat on the trial. then after that failed 3 times putting a new tube in (he did this countless times successfully before) and finally going to the shop and having them do it.

from that point we never buy gear such as the bike lock that we where going to buy after forgetting ours on an overnight trip.

we also get pain au chocolat on our way up north as a light breakfast then a bigger more meaty one once we are up.

I would not call it a superstition, but we say a family prayer before we ride to thank God for the opportunity and to have a safe fun time.

Not so much before but I worship the Gods of Beer religiously after.

Very cool. Riding is always my time to talk to him openly. Especially during a race.
