Many people would like to cycle through the winter months, whether as a means to get to work or for fitness and leisure, but they find it difficult to stay warm and dry. We choose three great products for winter cycling.

Primal Bokeh Women’s Cycling Jersey

Keep the wind and chill out while cycling this winter in a Primal Bokeh heavyweight jersey. The fabric is designed for wearing in cooler conditions but still allows sweat to evaporate away from the skin. The jersey boasts a soft, brushed back for comfort and a two-way stretch for freedom of movement. It is made to offer women a more relaxed fit so you could easily wear other layers beneath the jersey. There are three useful rear pockets and a full-length zip. Price £60 from shop.primaleurope.com

Gore Bike Wear Power 3.0 Thermo Bibtights+

[caption id="attachment_19441" align="aligncenter" width="540"] Men's bib tights[/caption] Bib tights are ideal for keeping you warmer on chilly days. Look for bibs with higher waists to stop the wind getting to back and waist. It’s important that you choose the right fit for the best comfort in the saddle so buy men’s bib tights or women’s bib tights. It’s up to you whether they are full length or three-quarters but the less skin there is exposed to the elements the warmer you’ll stay. The men's Gore Bike Wear Power 3.0 Thermo Bibtights+ feature doubled fabric in the knee area and back seat to protect against wind and spray.  Other features include flat-lock seams and reflective details. £119 from Evans Cycles for Gore Bike Wear Power 3.0 Thermo Bibtights+ [caption id="attachment_19445" align="aligncenter" width="493"] Women's bib tights[/caption] For women, choose bib tights that are designed to allow for easier access in the bathroom.
