Cycling Equipment¶

Find a bike suitable for the type of riding you will do and of the right size. Most cycle shops now offer a mini bike fit to identify the right size.

Essential clothes (kit) improve the enjoyment of riding by adding comfort on the main rider touch-points, e.g. padded cycling shorts for comfort on the saddle, a nice fitting jersey that wicks away sweat, and gloves that provide grip on warm days (or warmth on cold days).

Build up your collection of essentials as the amount of cycling grows. Look out for end of season sales and special offers.
