Cycling is a passion that many people across the world share. It is a great choice for exercise, stress and mental health relief, or even just a great way to get out of the house for some fresh air. Cycling is considered a low-impact exercise that is great for all ages. There are numerous health benefits including a great muscle workout for all of your major muscle groups. It can assist with weight loss, strengthen the legs, boosts immunity, reduces risk of cancer, may lower cholesterol levels, among many other great benefits. 

It is also a great exercise option due to the fact that it causes less strain and injuries than many other types of exercise. Cycling is also considered easier than other sports as it doesn’t require high levels of physical skill, making it a great exercise option for the entire family! So when it comes to holidays or birthdays for the cycling enthusiast in your life, we’ve put together a list of some of our favorite products that will improve your cyclist’s experience next time they hit the road. 

Compression socks are typically stereotyped as being necessary for diabetic, elderly, or disabled individuals, but that’s not the case with Comrad socks . Comrad socks work to improve oxygen delivery and blood flow, and because of those great benefits, there are many other people who could benefit from them as well. We love Comrad socks because of the personalization they offer for both male and females. Their socks are made for daily wear to increase energy, and prevent swelling. Comrad socks come in a variety of designs, cuts, styles, and materials that many other compression sock brands don’t offer. There are also different levels of compression offered by Comrad socks based on your own personal needs. So for cyclists, Comrad socks offer antimicrobial properties that eliminate odors while staying breathable and contouring to your leg. These socks are a game changer that your cyclist will love using every time they go on their next ride! Not sure what pair to pick? Purchase a gift card and send your rider online where they can take a quiz to personalize which pair would be best for them. 

While gripping the handlebars of a bicycle may not seem like an issue, over time calluses and blisters will begin to form. And once they form, the harder it is for the callus to heal if you continue cycling regularly. Cycling gloves are a great option to protect your hands. Cycling gloves should be tight enough for the rider to comfortably grip the handlebars, but not painfully tight. Cycling gloves are also slightly padded, which can protect your hands in case of an accident and provides a barrier between the handlebar and the nerves in your hands. 

Sunglasses are more than just an accessory for blocking out the sun. When riding, the possibility of objects impaling the eye is very real. Objects such as rocks or debris can fall off of vehicles passing by, flying insects and tree branches, among many other items could cause serious injury to your eye. Sunglasses will help protect your eyes from flying objects, while also keeping the sun’s UV rays out of your eyes. Any pair of sunglasses will be sufficient. If you have a nighttime rider, clear protective eye shields are a great option to shield the eyes without the tinted lenses. 

Quality bikes are not cheap, sometimes running upwards of $1,000, and often times even more. Then add all of the additional accessories, such as upgraded tires, handlebars, etc. Make sure your cycling enthusiast’s investment is well protected with a quality-made bike lock. Find a lock that is secure and strong but also functional and lightweight. Cable locks are not suggested for optimal security. The most secure bike lock options would be chain locks or u-locks. Always go the safe route. No one wants to pay for a replacement bike. This great gift will pay for itself tenfold!

Whether you’re biking alone or with a group, everyone enjoys some great music while exercising to help get you in the groove. Bluetooth speakers are nothing new to the market; therefore, the price of speakers is extremely reasonable for everything you get. Finding a speaker that is waterproof and durable is also essential, as you never know what the cyclist may come across when en route. Stormy, rainy weather can appear at a moment’s notice putting a big damper on a ride, so don’t let the weather get you down! Accidents happen, so don’t worry about your speaker getting damaged when it is dropped or smashed. 

When cycling, the number one priority is always the rider’s safety. We hope these fun gift ideas make your cyclist’s ride both safer and more enjoyable while getting a great workout in the meantime!
