Question

You need to be more careful when you cycle down a hill than when you cycle up the hill. Why?

Answer 1

We need to be careful while cycling down a hill road and the reason for the same can be discussed below.

1. The hill road acts like an inclined plane and the cycle rolls down on the hill road very fast due to the gravity.
2. We need to be careful to handle the high speed of the cycle while cycling down a hill road.
3. We need to ensure that the brakes of the cycle are working properly.
4. On the curves, we need to be very much cautious to prevent ourselves from any accident.
5. On the other hand, while cycling up a hill road, there is no issue of high speed and hence we can afford to be a bit less cautious.
