Merino wool is breathable, naturally anti-bacterial, lightweight and soft – qualities that make it ideally suited to cycling wear.
dhb have chosen a mid-weight Merino, blended polyamide to allow for a snug fit and added a polypropylene layer on the inside of the fabric to help moisture evaporate quicker.
We have a dhb merino long-sleeve jersey (size medium) worth £80 to give away. Add a little luxury to your next ride or put it under the tree for a loved one. To enter the draw, simply leave us a comment below and we’ll pick a winner next week.
Protect your bicycle this winter
On the face of it, one cycle insurance policy is much like another, but the devil is the detail. How much excess you will be charged is just one of the things that varies wildly between providers. Another is so called ‘new-for-old’ replacement – many insurers use this term, but if your bicycle is more than a few years old, devalue it severely. This means you are left out of pocket when you come to replace it.
ETA cycle insurance has a low excess and offers new-for-old for life – however old the bike, if it’s stolen you get enough to buy a new model. Furthermore, every cycle insurance policy you buy from us helps support the work of the ETA Trust, our charity campaigning for a cleaner, safer transport future.

I’ve always loved merino wool for cycling, it’s the best. Maybe it’s because I’m Welsh! No sniggering at the back…! 🙂

A top like that would make me shine,
Make me look so fine,
With kit like that all roads are flat.
I might even buy a matching hat.
Crash hat of course, I’m not daft in spite to my poetry.
Jill
I’m planning to lead bike rides as much as possible over the winter, this would make the rides, warm comfortable and more fun. 😁

Red merino. Always good to get something that matches your eyes!

What a great incentive to keep off the weight I’ve lost – by cycling of course – so that I’ll still fit this gorgeous jersey!

I was trying to decide if natural fibres are more sustainable than synthetic but this product has both. Great!

Have been very reassured with your cycle rescue insurance.
This would be a super gift to myself and keep me on the roads during the remaining winter!

Shame there isn’t a choice of size for each of these clothing competitions, this severely limits the number of people who want to enter.
