With the constantly changing spring weather, I am always trying to figure out what will be the most comfortable way to dress for each bike ride. Do I need a light jacket or is a t-shirt and shirt OK? Shorts or Pants? etc. So I wrote down some notes on what I find to be comfortable and practical based on the outside temperature (and wind speed).

This is only a guide, of course, but it has been very helpful for me so I just wrote it up a little better and posted it under cycling articles. The title (and link) is How to Dress for Bike Rides in Any Weather.

It was a little difficult to translate my casual notes on the subject into a (hopefully) helpful article with suggestions on how to dress for bike rides in different weather conditions but I did the best that I could. I hope that I did not lose too much in the translation.

As I was writing the article, it seemed important to cover the topic of rain, of course,  so I added some additional comments and suggestions on protecting your bike (and other) electronics (bike computers, GPS units, cell phones, cameras, ipods, etc) from the rain.

Basically you just need to have a good bike bag and bring some baggies or plastic bags with you, for your equipment, in case of rain.

Well, I hope you enjoy the new weather preparation article.
