    Morning

    Going cycling in the Peak District this weekend and I am slightly concerened as I don’t have a climbers jersey, I think my usual jersey is just standard.  Is it still worth going or will the lack of the appropriate apparel cause me serious issues?

    Somebody on here will know…

    Cheers

    Steady

    For the downhills you will need aero bars, if you don’t have aero bars I can recommend buying two aero bars and sticking them on your non aero bars…

    Last time I went there I didn’t have a “climbers jersey”, but I did borrow Chris Bonington’s under-vest, so suspect that is how I got through unscathed.

    Don’t worry – the climbs in

    Don’t worry – the climbs in the Peak District aren’t proper climbs – for 1000+m of ascent in one go you’ll need to go to France/Switzerland/Italy/US/Japan/etc.

    From memory none of the climbs in the Peak District takes more than 20mins and most are sub-5 mins

    What’s a climbing jersey? Does it have large pockets you can stuff with helium balloons sad?

    LOLZ, you’ll be fine, keep well hydrated and wear a top with a ‘full zip’ otherwise known as a thermo biological temperature control slide.
