Mountain Bike Clothing
|
When you go true mountain biking in the woods or on country roads you have the mountain bike but now you want to dress like a mountain biker. If you want to wear shorts or sweat pants when you go biking that is up to you but to get the true feeling of dressing the part of a mountain biker requires some clothing to help you achieve that feeling. You will not only need the clothes but the accessories as well.
By the time you are done, you will look like Lance Armstrong (almost). First you will need a pair of bike shorts, the reason why these are worn and not sweat pants or any other type of shorts is that the bike shorts stay very close to the body cutting down on any wind resistance your clothes pick up from the wind while riding. So you will need bike shorts and cycle shirt. This is made of the same material that the shorts are made from and for the same reason.
There are mountain biking shoes that you can buy specifically for this. Shoes with laces will get caught in the spokes and will slow you down. You don’t want that to happen to you while riding on the trail or on a mountain bike course. Now you look the part of the mountain biker. You can also add long pants but make sure they are spandex like the shorts and the same is said of the shirts. |
