Cycling gear, whether its MTB, Road or whatever is so bloody expensive!! Jerseys and brand name MTB shirts at $100 and $70+ bike shorts are a bit beyond my budget.. I still can’t come to terms with wearing the skin tight Lycra kit so this is what I came up with.. Firstly T-Shirts are out..(wear one on a decent trail ride and you'll find out why) and you need proper bike shorts..
Kmart sells good quality moisture wicking shirts of various brands for between $14 and $25. Anaconda also has nice Fluid Brand shirts for $25 (keep an eye out for member specials). This is good value and allows you to have a couple in your drawer so you (or your better half) is not constantly washing. Big W also came to the rescue with excellent quality padded bike shorts for under $40. Wear them under a pair of light shorts and you're golden.
This kit is pretty basic but it'll do for now.. or until someone wants to sponsor a 43 year old nobody.. ..
