Road cycling has become a very popular sport and more and more people, men and women, are getting involved in this sport. Some may have dreams of being the next Lance Armstrong, some may simply want to participate in a competitive sport, some just for the social aspect, and then there are those who want to get in better shape, maybe lose a few pounds. There are also those who simply cannot handle high-impact sports, such as running, due to the impact on their knees and back. Riding a bike is a perfect replacement. Whatever the reason, the GMC Yukon XL road bike should meet anyone’s needs.
What is a road bike? It is a bike that is designed for speed and to be able to travel longer distances on paved roads. They have thinner tires and are lighter than your standard bike. The handlebars have a drop bar design for a more streamlined position, helping you with your speed. A road bike will have more gears, allowing you to handle hills and flat terrain more efficiently.
Maybe there is someone on your Christmas List who wants a Road Bike.
