#Cycle4haiti top tip #1: Maintain your bike properly – keep your brakes and chain in good working order, and your tyres well-inflated. Adjust seat height for an efficient and pain-free ride; when seated your leg should be almost straight, with your foot flat on the lower pedal.

#Cycle4haiti top tip #2: Never cycle in the dark without adequate lighting – white for front and red for rear, and always wear luminous clothing such as hi-vis vests, fluorescent armbands and reflective belts so that other road users can see you.

Haven’s Sewing Women programme has given more than 100 women in Haiti the means to provide for themselves and their families long into the future. Cycle4haiti raises much needed funds for Haven to continue these life-changing projects. Sign up now at Cycle4haiti.com

#Cycle4haiti top tip #3: Never cycle your bike without wearing a helmet. Wearing a helmet can reduce the risk of head injury to cyclists by as much as 85%.

#Cycle4haiti top tip #4: Always respect the rules of the road. Make sure to keep to the left. Always look behind and give the proper signal before moving off, changing lanes, or making a turn.

#Cycle4haiti top tip #5: When cycling to a new destination or along a new route, use an updated cycling map to plan before you ride. Determine the best route for your ability and experience.

#Cycle4haiti top tip #6: Always use hand signals when turning, slowing down or stopping before passing other road users. Shoulder check and use your bell or voice to make other users aware of you.

#Cycle4haiti top tip #7: Cycle in a straight line and try to be predictable in your movements -- effective positioning will help you be seen on the road. Don’t use mobile devices or headphones while cycling – stay distraction-free.

#Cycle4haiti top tip #8: Cycle at a safe pace, especially when cycling on busy streets and going downhill. Slow down in pedestrian areas and yield to those on foot.

#Cycle4haiti top tip #9: Consume the right amount of calories and food needed for your cycle. Carbohydrates help increase your energy levels, protein-rich foods improve your post-ride recovery and drinks containing glucose and fructose can improve performance and endurance.
