Hi, I am a 3rd year student researching male cyclists, between the ages of 40-60. If anyone could reply to a few questions i have i would be very very grateful.


1. Do you cycle to work?
Yes, unless I need to carry an outsize load or the weather is so inclement I can't.

2. Do you cycle for leisure?
Yes, when I get the chance.

3. What sort of clothes do you wear for cycling?
Lycra cycling clothing. Sorry if this makes me a cliche but it's the most comfortable and best-suited for me. In my defence, it's all Aldi/Lidl

4. What other past times do you do when not at work or cycling?
Gardening. DIY. Walks with our new mutt.

5. Would you be interested in a more smart but breathable and movable clothing range?
Yes (price dependant I'm afraid).


Thanks again

Cycling kit, jeans, shorts ..... depends on the purpose of my ride.

Not really - breathable cloths don't work well enough for cycling...... are you really a student?
