Surviving Winter Riding

Here on Vancouver Island we have a couple of options for riding in the winter.  Yesterday Jason and I each chose a different one, and here I explain the equipment necessary for each type.


Option A


- helmet
- toque
- glasses
- rain jacket
- wool jersey
- polypro base layer
three-layer gloves
- thermal bib tights
- bib shorts
- hot chili socks
- neoprene shoe covers
- winter fleece-lined cycling shoes
- small pack with back-up clothing
- cyclocross bike with tractor tires








Option B


- tank top
- cycling shorts
- tri shoes
- trainer
- book of trainer workouts
- tv & remote






No matter which option you choose, the important thing is you're riding.  Happy pedaling, indoors or out!
