What to wear on a bike trip?

When planning a cycling trip you should take into account many important aspects which can affect the quality and effectiveness of the ride. You should not forget, that cycling is a form of physical activity and requires engagement from your body. Therefore, it is worth taking care of your comfort along the whole route and minimise the number of unnecessary problems, which may result from improper preparation for the trip.

First of all, it is worth to analyse the weather. Sudden changes in weather conditions may often occur during a cycling trip, which may result, among others, from the current season or the location of the planned trip. Although there is never a chance to be one hundred per cent sure, it is worth monitoring the forecast on an ongoing basis. This makes it much easier to estimate the likely temperature and adjust your clothing accordingly. In addition, the entire route should be well studied. The presence of downhills and uphills during a trip often constitutes a real test for the fitness of a cyclist. In some cases it can also extend the whole cycling trip. If you are planning a few-day trip, it is worth to optimally distribute the number of covered kilometres within 24 hours.

As far as clothing is concerned, it should be characterised by several important aspects:

• comfortable to wear
• resistance to damage
• a high level of flexibility
• good body feel when riding
• preventing the build-up of sweat and water
• effective air circulation between the body and the environment
