<h2 data-pm-slice="1 1 []">Road Cycling Shorts: for pedalling comfortably for long hours</h2>To ride, it’s best to be equipped with a comfortable road cycling short. Whether climbing the Col des Portes in the Jura or tackling the Col du Tourmalet in the Pyrenees, it’s crucial to choose the right road cycling shorts. <a href="https://www.hardloop.co.uk/shop/3882-mens-road-cycling-shorts" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" target="__blank">Men's road cycling shorts</a> or <a href="https://www.hardloop.co.uk/shop/3881-womens-road-cycling-shorts" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" target="__blank"> Women's road cycling shorts</a>, you must first ensure you make the right choice. A road cycling short should fit you perfectly, so take the time to choose wisely, allowing you to ride for miles and discover new landscapes. Comfort is one of the essential elements when cycling; even a slight discomfort can sometimes make you turn back and lose the desire to ride your bike. You wouldn’t want to climb Mont Ventoux in your <a href="https://www.hardloop.co.uk/shop/1662-running-bibs" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" target="__blank">running shorts</a>… we certainly wouldn’t recommend it, or you might face discomfort and irritation!On a bike, comfort means chamois: an insert placed in your road cycling shorts at your intimate areas to provide maximum comfort on the saddle. For long rides, opt for a thick and breathable chamois. The comfort of a road cycling short also involves good sweat management and airflow during your physical activity.&nbsp;<h2>Road Cycling Shorts: to tackle the most iconic climbs</h2>Once you’re comfortably seated on your saddle and have found a road cycling short with a chamois made for you, it’s time to think about performance to face the legendary climbs of France or Europe. When we talk about performance, we refer to the material of your road cycling shorts. Choose road cycling shorts made from breathable materials to effectively wick away sweat. Lycra is a material with excellent properties for a road cycling short. Generally, it tends to compress you, promoting muscle drainage to reduce fatigue.If bad weather doesn’t scare you and you enjoy challenges, even if you have to ride through a downpour, you can opt for a road cycling short with a waterproof and water-repellent membrane. Riding a bike is a unique experience, but riding wet is a bit less enjoyable!Finally, there’s the choice of straps… Most <a href="https://www.hardloop.co.uk/shop/1967-womens-cycling-shorts" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" target="__blank">women's cycling shorts</a> don’t have straps, a matter of comfort for you ladies.

The <a href="https://www.hardloop.co.uk/shop/1966-mens-cycling-shorts" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" target="__blank">men's cycling shorts</a> will, on the other hand, be equipped with straps.
