Last Saturday, January 15, the second Women’s Cycling Clinic was held, organized by Rubén Tanco, which took place in the gardens of the RUCAB University Residence and that had the participation of 10 females.
The main objective of this clinic was for these women to acquire the basic notions that must be had on nutrition and basic repair on the bicycle.
The activity began at 9:30 a.m. with a short talk by a member of the CB Integra Team Foundation on nutrition on the bike, in which he highlighted the role played by bars and nuts.
Then the subject was changed to focus on the set-up of the bicycle and a drill was even carried out to learn first-hand how to repair a puncture when on the road.
Once they had acquired this knowledge, they got on their bikes and, together with Rubén Tanco, set out on an 80-kilometre route that ran through the surroundings of Elvas, Olivenza, San Rafael de Olivenza and back to the RUCAB.
Even this route ran through the new bridge of Badajoz, in which they made a free section, where the participants were thoroughly used.
Rubén Tanco himself assured that it was wonderful “to shoot with these women. These clinics are being a success and we are going to continue doing many more during the 2022 season”. It must be remembered that this is the second women’s clinic that Rubén Tanco has carried out after the one held on November 21, 2021, also at the RUCAB, where a talk about the Overcoming On Wheels project was held and a 40-kilometer route was subsequently carried out. around Elvas.
