Cool Bike Jerseys
Parents need to encourage children to stay active and engage in physical exercise often. However, that’s easier said than done, because it can be difficult to motivate teenagers to get off their computers and phones to head outdoors. However, if you make an activity cool for them, they might be more inclined to engage in it. At eCycling Store, we recommend cycling and suggest you purchase cool bike jerseys to motivate your children. Here are some tips that would help.
Understand the Fit – Bike jerseys can be fitted so they cling to the body and while most adults would be confident enough to carry the look off, teenagers are not. Most children are very self-conscious about their looks and physique so they won’t appreciate tight fitting bike jerseys, even if they’re well designed. We recommend looser jerseys for teenagers unless they’re completely comfortable with their physique and wouldn’t mind such clothes.
Design – Your notion of cool and interesting would different from that of your child, so it’s important to take their preferences into consideration. For example, you might find vintage bicycle jerseys cool and interesting but the younger generation might have more minimalistic tastes. Peek into your child’s closet and look at the colors and designs that dominate it before you shop for cool bike jerseys for them. We recommend you browse our ‘Unique Bicycle Jersey’ page to look at some of our more interesting designs. We’ve noticed that these are more popular with our younger customers.
Sun Protection – The entire back of the cyclist is exposed to the sun during the ride, which can be very uncomfortable and cause sunburns. If you want to keep your children motivated, you need to ensure they’re comfortable during the ride. You can do this by buying cool bike jerseys with UV protection.
Other Accessories – Just buying cool bike jerseys isn’t enough as your child would need other accessories to ride safely and regularly. You’ll need to purchase:
Padded bike shorts for better comfort.
Cycling socks for better moisture wicking properties.
Cycling caps to protect them from sunlight during the ride.
Arm and leg warmers for fall and winter riding.
Moisture wicking jacket for protection against light rain.
Bottle cage if the bike doesn’t already have one.
