Ride Your Bike More in 2026 with These Engaging Bike Resolutions



Do you want to spend more time biking in 2026? It’s time to set a few bike resolutions! You may have picked up a new ride during a holiday bicycle clearance or received one as a gift. Either way, biking can be a great, low-impact way to get in routine exercise, and it’s a whole lotta fun!

Depending on the weather and conditions in your neck of the woods, you might not necessarily jump at the chance to ride your bike right now. But if conditions cooperate, you can get a head start on spending more time on your bicycle by making a few bike resolutions for the new year.

Ride X Miles a Week

Set a goal to ride X miles every week. If you’re just getting back into the swing of things, you might start with a more attainable number. The exact number per week may depend on the accessibility and geography of your area.

After a few weeks, up your game by adding a mile (or a few) to build up the length of your rides. By summer, you’ll be impressed by how far you’ve come. If one of your goals is to get in shape in 2026, biking is a fantastic activity to add to your routine.

Turn Bike Riding Into a Friendly Competition

Add a competitive twist to your riding by going head-to-head with friends or family. Like you, they may have picked up new bikes on clearance or received them as gifts. This creates an incentive to use them!

See who can rack up the most miles in a week or month. Throw in prizes, too. Maybe the person with the fewest miles buys dinner. Adding a competitive edge, along with rewards, to any goal can be a great way to promote participation and keep yourself engaged along the way.

Try Bike Commuting

You can buy discount bicycles of all types, including hybrid, road, and commuter bikes. If you have one that offers a blend of comfort and reliability, why not try bike commuting in the new year?

You might start by commuting to and from the store. Running errands via bike can be another great way to stay active while checking off your to-do list. Eventually, you might use it to commute to and from work. And in all situations, always wear a helmet!
