  • good tights are essential

    This is my first year commuting via bike. The biggest trick is staying cool while staying warm. I have found that a pair of bike tights rated for cold temperatures have been great. The high tech fabric does a great job keeping my legs at the right temperature, wicking moisture while retaining heat (the right amount of heat). The few days I have not worn them, I came close to overheating. They cost about $100, but they will keep giving back by allowing me to ride into the winter. It was pretty easy to swallow that expense when I thought about it that way.On Umbra on winter biking posted 1 year ago 18 Responses
