Hi all
I've signed up to the London to Southend ride next month and whilst fit am relatively new to long distance cycling. I've got a standard mountain bike (yep, I know I'd be better off with a road bike or hybrid but I'm not a big cyclist yet!). What else am I likely to need for this event?
I need a helmet so any suggestions there would be great. The cheaper the better. I was also thinking padded shorts? (would prefer something not too clingy!). Any creams for friction? Anythign else you experts can suggest would be great.
Thanks!
Greg
