4. If you think that a choice has to be made between stilettos and your bike, think again – a bike ride is the perfect chance to wear your most painful shoes. Why? Because you don't have to walk in them. Whether you wear flats or five-inch stilettos, you won't feel any difference, because you don't put your heel on the pedal.

A hat is also a good choice, but you should make sure that it's firmly attached to your head, or it could fly off at the slightest acceleration.
