Humbug

Winter is finally upon us, and even for us people of the desert, temperatures have already started to drop. Even though we may have it milder here in the valley than most areas, knowing how to stay warm on rides is critical to keeping up with training through the winter. A few key articles of clothing such as arm and knee warmers, and a winter cycling cap can basically extend your riding season through the winter. Another great option for when the temperatures drop is a lightweight, windproof vest, and some full finger gloves. To check out some unique cold-weather riding gear, check out La Gazzetta Della Bici, a blog devoted to the finer points and rich tradition of the sport of cycling. There is some pretty neat content on some of their other posts as well!
