Cycle to Work Day is here and across the UK, many people are choosing to cycle instead of relying on their usual commute. Whether you’re a daily cyclist or a one-off rider giving it a go, there’s no denying the perks – fresher air, better fitness and a happier headspace.
But cycling can be thirsty work. So, before you hop on your bike, make sure you have your hydration plan sorted. A quick sip from your bottled water isn’t always enough – especially if your route is longer or the weather’s warm.
If your workplace has a water cooler, you’re in luck. That post-ride refresh is just a few steps away. Even better if there are chilled options – because nothing quite hits like cool water after a morning pedal.
Cycling + hydration benefits:
- Boosts energy and focus post-ride
- Helps with muscle recovery
- Keeps your body temperature regulated
Don’t forget to replenish water levels regularly – not just once you arrive but throughout the day. It’s the secret to feeling energised and staying productive.
So, gear up, grab your water bottle and start pedalling. Your body, mind (and the planet) will thank you – and your post-ride energy might just rub off on all your workmates too.
