Importance of Cleaning your Weapon!

Do you clean your weapon regularly? When I say weapon I mean your Bike...
When I was in the Army, We were fastidious about cleaning our equipment it could be the difference between life and death. We didn't pay for the weapons, radios, trucks or equipment but we relied on it to do our job and keep us safe.
We used discipline and process to ensure our weapons in particular were always clean and ready to use. Did you know if your weapon was inspected and found to have any rust on it you would be charged and punished.. Being charged for having a dirty weapon was very embarrassing. It was almost the worst thing you could get in the Shit for..
So what does a photo of my beautiful De Rosa Merak Bike have to do with this.... and why am I talking about this?
Well it is simple it is just about DISCIPLINE and COMMITMENT. I see people riding filthy dirty bikes all the time and it is a real shame.. Riding a clean bike improves performance - this is what I am talking about:
"The numbers can vary based on the ‘dirtiness’ of the chain, but on average, testing shows a dirty road chain can decrease efficiency by about 3 to 5 watts (at 250-watt rider output) – about 1 to 2 per cent of power loss,”
“For example, say a properly cleaned and lubed chain consumes about 7 watts. The light road grit kicked up from a couple of ‘clean’ road rides can cost an additional 3 watts of frictional losses.”
But look at how clean this chain is in the photo it has ridden 3,000km and it looks and importantly feels like it is new when I ride my baby.
NOW again you say why is Andre the Health Coach Writing about this... well it all comes back to Discipline and Commitment....
Many people say oh it's to much work to eat well it's to much work to meal prep.
It is all Bullshit. It is just a lack of DISCIPLINE and COMMITMENT to your health
Just like making your bed, cleaning your shoes, Ironing your clothes and CLEANING YOUR BIKE YOUR WEAPON.
I clean my beautiful bike any time it has been ridden and is dirty, cleaning my weapon is calming, it is therapy, it makes me feel good, Just like eating well and making my bed.
So WHAT ARE YOU Going to do? If you need help with some DISCIPLINE or COMMITMENT ask yourself where are you going to be next year if you continue on your way... What will you get?

2 年Andre Obradovic this is how my road bike starts every ride! Cleaning my bikes is one of my go-to mindfulness exercises. It gives me 20 minutes of pure focus and presence - which provides a cascading effect of calmness and positive emotion for me for hours after I hang my 'weapon' back up in the shed. We cover mindfulness and 'flow' in our mindset training at our cycleWELL Retreats mate - I hope you can make it next year. You might be a great guest speaker at a future event - we seem very well aligned. Thanks for sharing the article.
