The road.cc DealCatcher is once again focusing on the deteriorating weather today by offering great cycling deals on cycling jackets and bike lights to see you through the dark nights ahead and energy bars to keep your legs turning.
Specialized's Element RBX Pro Jacket's had a whopping £70 knocked off of its price tag over on Cycle Store's website making it one of the better value cycling jackets we've seen over the last few weeks.
Second up is Moon's road.cc-rated 9/10 bike light, the Meteor. Evans Cycles has given the light a 39% discount. You can't really go wrong.
Finally, Science in Sport's 50-pack bundle on protein bars and energy bars should give you the fuel you need to keep cycling through the colder months. At 46% off they're extraordinary value.

As the weather begins to drop off that cold cliff you'll be needing cycle clothing that protects you from the impending freeze but also offers a bit of flexibility for when the weather picks up a little bit.
Specialized's RBX Element jacket is a multi-use item that works as an outer layer for those cool to cold days and a mid layer for those inevitable hellish days of never-ending frozen driving rain.
The jacket's made of three layers, a compact smooth and elastic abrasion resistant outer shell, a water repellant inner layer, and a Lombardia fleece back for comfort and warmth.

As far as bike lights go, the Moon Meteor is one of our favourites.
Our man Rob Simmonds called it a "cracking little light that punches well above its weight and price" in his review, ending it by emphasising that he "really, really liked this light."
It's apparently surprisingly powerful, cheap (even more so now) and intelligently thought out.
Science in Sport
Finally, keep your motivation up this winter by keeping your energy levels high. At least, that's what Science in Sport would be telling you if they were here right now; and we're not ones to argue with scientists.
This bundle sees you pretty much get two bars for the price of one. You've got a variety of flavours to choose from in the protein and energy bar departments.
We know they work too, our man David Else reviewed the protein bars below. He called them "very tasty" and highlighted the bars' excellent mix of carbs and protein.
Hopefully it'll still be allowed for recreational use.
Well Gloucestershire are getting better. I'm being told whether or not action is to be taken, but not what action, within a few days of each report...
Surely Lincolnshire is a prime location for UK cycle infrastructure - after all, it's flat, so should assuage the most common excuse that people...
Yes! 100% a Pace!
I did my first BC intro to coaching course last year and really enjoyed it. But I am not a member of a cycling club and ride with groups of like...
Hmm - crashing off the side of a mountain at 48kmh sounds a lot safer than crashing off the side of a mountain at 55. Yeah....
Churnalism nowadays - mostly clickbait stuff and regurgitation in the local rags/comics and beyond.
I'm glad the barrier wasn't damaged. Whew, close one there! \s
I repurposed a bent rear derailleur hanger into a keyring. It's very useful, and you can use it to open bottles of beer.
My bum hates Flites. Worse saddle ever for me.
