  • Help - I'm building a road bike for the first time and now need to buy kit to transform into my inner future mamil - to ride the fucker. Don't expect I will be riding till March and will only do so in the dry, although possibly early starts . What am I likely to need to wear for typical 1-2 hrs of riding ? I currently only have one merino short sleeve jersey (howies) and a helly hanson LS base layer - so i'm basically starting from scratch here.

  • Doesn’t matter if it’s Rapha or Decathlon/PlanetX but you could do a lot worse than;

    Short sleeve baselayer
    SS jersey
    Arm warmers
    Bibs
    Leg warmers (cheap are fine)
    Packable full finger gloves (cheap are fine)
    Toe thingies (cheap are fine)
    A cap or buff for yer head

    And...

    A thin, packable softshell gilet or jacket, maybe goretex. If you go for a gilet perhaps buy decent arm warmer like Sportful NoRain or similar.
