The shoulder seasons and colder months offer breathtaking landscapes, but they put every cyclist to the test. In the saddle, constant exposure to cold wind, moisture, and rapid temperature changes makes the choice of clothing and accessories a determining factor for health, comfort, and performance.
THE IMPORTANCE OF PROTECTING YOUR BODY AND EYES
During autumn and winter rides, the body generates heat on climbs but cools down quickly on descents. Protecting yourself with the right garments is essential for several reasons:
Core temperature regulation: a long-sleeved thermal jersey specifically designed for autumn and winter provides insulation from the cold and rapid sweat wicking, preventing moisture from remaining in contact with the skin.
Protection for extremities and the face: hands and head are the first parts to suffer from the cold. Winter gloves maintain sensitivity on the brakes, while a thermal neck warmer protects the neck and airways.
Sweat management under the helmet: a technical all-season helmet liner prevents sweat from running into the eyes and protects from insects and dust all year round.
Visibility and eye protection: with winter light and cold wind, cycling glasses with wrap-around lenses shield the eyes from watering and asphalt glare, ensuring maximum safety.
CYCLING COLD-WEATHER BUNDLES
To tackle the colder months in complete safety, the complete kits consisting of a long-sleeved thermal jersey, winter gloves, neck warmer, all-season helmet liner, and Glen glasses (5-piece kit - also available as a 4-piece kit without the Glen glasses) offer you maximum protection from the first to the last kilometer.
Don't let the cold stop you: dress warmly and keep riding in every season.
