**Take Breaks**: Don’t be afraid to stop every hour or so. Stretch your legs, walk around a bit, and give your body a little break. It helps keep the blood flowing and reduces stiffness.

**Padded Shorts**: Invest in a good pair of padded cycling shorts. They can really cushion your ride and make it way more comfortable, especially on long trips.

**Stretch Before and After**: Spend a few minutes stretching before you hit the road and again when you finish. It helps loosen up your muscles and can prevent soreness later.
