Winter Riding Tip: Layer Up!

01/16/2019

Ditch the puffy down jacket. Your best chance at staying warm on a bike is to dress in multiple layers. Try this on your next ride.

  • A sweat-wicking base layer
  • A long-sleeve wool layer (add a sweater here if it’s below 30 degrees)
  • A non-restrictive winter jacket

 

Remember, you’re going to warm up as you ride, so if you feel a little chilly when you first get outside, don’t panic. Riding to work? Pack your dress shirt and change when you get there.
