Many riders who ride long distances do not ride in winter. Commuters commuting to work by bike still have to ride, and ca n’t be lazy with the excuse of cold weather, so we need some suitable equipment and methods to resist the cold. Bike commuting, outdoor sports experience, let's talk about the winter equipment needed for autumn and winter riding.
The cold protection scheme for cycling can also be used for multiple outdoor sports in winter, running, outing, climbing a hill (note that small is very important, you are going to climb the snow mountain is another story).
Exercise on cold days, we have to solve some problems?
When it comes to winter riding, the first thing that comes to mind is "cold", and to find a way to solve the problem of keeping warm.
In fact, there is a more serious problem than cold in outdoor activities in cold weather is "hot".
Yes, you read that right, the main trouble of winter commuting is not cold, but "hot". why? Listen to me slowly explain:
I think everyone should have this experience, wearing thick cotton clothes, running a few steps to catch the bus, or suffocating in a crowded elevator for 5 minutes, you will find that you will sweat very quickly without being sweaty and thick I can't see through my clothes, so my underwear will be wet and uncomfortable. This is the "hot" problem in winter.
Therefore, in winter sports, you can neither wear too much, nor wear too much, even most of the cold after exercise is caused by wearing too much.
Back to the commuting environment, first of all, the easiest to wear less is to control the thickness of the clothes to exercise when you feel the temperature is just right. When running or cycling in winter, you can see that many sports enthusiasts only wear a combination of tight thermal underwear or tight underwear and a warm soft shell.
