Safety is something to consider before you even hit the road. Having the proper clothing for biking is critical for a few reasons. The first is that you should be comfortable as well as colorful. Having bright colored clothing helps to make you more visible to any motorists, no matter the time of day. The second reason is that proper cycling gear will help avoid mishaps like pant legs getting stuck in the chain.
