  • What do you guys wear when it gets cold? I was going to continue with jeans and a cotton long sleeved top, but the top gets moist and cold, and I am tired of the taint abuse that jeans inflicts.

    Cotton is a terrible material to wear for cycling in any weather unless you're dawdling along, in which case just about anything is fine, but I don't tend to be a dawdler.

    I'm currently using a helly hansen base t-shirt. then a couple of normal clothes layers on top of that. I'm really impressed with the Hansen tops' performance. Wicks the sweat away really well and I'm yet to suffer the sweaty chills during/after riding. Want to now try these leg warmers: http://tinyurl.com/ybo58tg.

    I also sometimes wear my deerstalker leather/suede hat with earflaps. Always a winner. £35 and handmade from a shop on Brick Lane. Well worth every penny so far to be fair.

    About to buy a pair of Sealskinz gloves tomorrow: http://tinyurl.com/yem382w
    Tried a pair on today and they have a nice close fit and aren't too bulky. They're also 100% waterproof which would've been nice when I got caught out a couple of weeks ago in absolutely torrential rain.
