Ladies Cold Weather Cycle Clothing by Alé
When Alé Cycling launched their Fall-Winter 2022/23 collection, it was designed just for these time periods. However, they made it so well, that’s it’s also perfect for early spring, which is why I’m still wearing it in Transylvania.

ALE Ladies Cold Weather Accessories 2023
Once the sun is under the clouds, it’s much colder, and so, we have to dress smart. The base layer and accesories like gloves, necktube, shoe cover, socks are equally important as the main kit when choosing how to dress-up for the ride.

RH+ Stripes Jersey
In a cycling world bloated with cycling apparel manufacturers, it’s incredibly difficult to pick out what will work for you, select the kind of kit that you need for your locality, your type of riding and more importantly, how to look cool or be that bag of spanners. There's a cost to consider too; so when I tell you Armani designed and styled the Italian Police Service, you’re probably going to look away from Italy, as that statement conjures up huge costs. Hang on a minute and stick with me...

RH+ Climber Jersey
Living here in the Yorkshire Dales National Park, we’re surrounded by hills. This means that the kit we choose has to perform while we’re working hard all day long.

Let’s take a look at the reasons why.
