Clothing in Tips for cycle trips
There is a variety of cycling-specific clothing that can make your trip much more comfortable and/or safe:
Helmet - required by law in some jurisdictions. They are widely recommended as an important safety precaution. They also offer some protection from the sun.
Jacket - wind- and water-proof layer for protection from precipitation and cooler temperatures.
Cycling shorts - special shorts with padding around the crotch to increase comfort and reduce chafing, also can be warn under looser fitting clothing for more modest people, or when in more modest countries.
Tights - for cooler weather than shorts; more comfortable than pants and less likely to get caught in the chain. Usually come with reflective markings at the ankle.
Gloves - Wearing padded gloves to minimize vibration and pressure on the hands during long rides makes a huge difference to your comfort. Use cut-off style for warmer temperatures, full-finger for cooler.
Eye protection - UV protection is better for the long term health of your eyes and makes for a more comfortable ride. Detachable lenses allow you to use the best lens colour for different conditions (such as yellow for cloud cover or clear for nocturnal riding).
