Let us know your sprinting mistakes to avoid in the comments below 👇

There are a number of mistakes to avoid if you are in the situation of sprinting for a win. Even if it's only for the local town sign.

Here are our five that you need to make sure you avoid!
- Overgearing - If you are in too large a gear, you cannot get the jump and instant speed needed.
- Undergearing - If you spin out on a low gear, you will not be able to unleash the full power of your sprint
- Unzipped jersey - You've nailed everything, oh, but left you cycling jersey undone. Make sure it's done up!
- Early Celebration - A classic fail. It will haunt you, or a victim of it, forever!
- Sprinting on the hoods - Unless you are sprinting up a climb, avoid it. You will be catching more wind with your frontal area than needed.
