Cycling Gloves in Winter

On such a cold day for cycling like today and after seeing some of the terrible weather, we want to share our opinion on wearing cycling gloves while out and about in the UK.

Cycling in the UK can bring some nasty weather at any time of the year, so that's why Alimay Sports have cycling clothing for all weather.

Cycling Gloves are stocked in full finger winter cycling gloves, full finger mountain bike gloves and classic road cycling mitts for when the weather is warm enough to cycle with those digits exposed to the elements.
However, let's talk about the cold weather and how important it is to stay warm when cycling.

Cycling Gloves provide two functions throughout the year. One of those functions is important all year round, and that is protection for cyclists hands in case of a crash or fall.

The other cycling gloves function is to keep warmth in your hands, and this is so important when cycling in colder months.
Cycling gloves help to keep blood circulating through your hands and all the way to the tips of your fingers.
By maintaining good blood flow in your fingers, it gives you better tactile response and gives you better handling of your bike and on the levers



If there's one thing that you need to invest in, it's a pair of good cycling gloves that offer wind protection and water protection, because even though we train our legs heavily, our hands are just as important when cycling a bike!
