Advice for riders racing Red Hook Crit for the first time on April 29: choose your gear ratio carefully! A reasonable ratio should be used. 48×14 for men and 49×15 for women is a good starting point. Excessively large gear ratios are not recommended. Check the Technical Rules section on our website (link in profile) to properly set up your bike and prepare equipment & apparel. Remember that athletes who fail the technical inspection must solve the issue before their race in order to compete: Ph: @francoislebeau #redhookcrit #rhcbk10
