I live in Dallas, Texas and I'm looking to buy some winter cycling clothes. I have a road bike and I just cycle for recreation and fitness, I'm not into racing or anything like that. What I need:
From what I've seen here at my local Richardson Bike Mart, the Pearl Izumi pants are $155, and the jersy's I saw are all about $100. That's $250 bucks on just 2 pieces, and pretty steep!
Also outside of a full cover face mask (like skii mask) I can't think of anything good for covering my ears. Suggestions here would be valuable.
Does it really have to be this expensive? I like quality gear but I'm not sure if those are rip-off prices. Any ideas, suggestions, comments, recommendations, etc are greatly appreciated!!
- Winter gloves
- Long pants
- Long sleeve jersy/top
- Something to cover my ears so they don't get cold & ache
