Hi,

I got my bike last year and used it all the time during the warmer months but really wanting to go out now but only have summer wear.

Been looking on wiggle.co.uk for stuff but not sure exactly what i need.

I just don't want to feel cold so what would you all recommend? I only cycle as a hobby so it will only be when it's light so i wont need bright clothing.

    I have a couple pairs of the DHB Roubaix bib tights and they've been fantastic, especially considering the price. In this sort of weather 5-10C I wear a short sleeve base layer under a long sleeve top and still sweat buckets when putting in a decent effort. A windproof gilet and windproof gloves are also a must. For my feet I use merino socks (Endura winter and DeFeet are nice) as well as neoprene shoe covers. I also duct tape the vents on my shoes for a bit more warmth.
