Riding In Hot Weather - The Pro Air On The Roads Of Izmir (for www.lecol.cc)

Riding in Turkey can get hot. Izmir, where I live, is one of the coastal cities located in the furthest West of Turkey, and it is widely known for its high temperatures. It's not uncommon for my Garmin to give readings as high as 45 ºC in summer. Being close to the sea, humidity is also really high, so getting clothing choices right is really critical.

A light jersey can make all the difference on those hot days.

The humidity makes you feel the long climbs in the sun twice as much. Because the Jersey channels air, moisture evaporates fast. Couple with that the fit, it's easy to forget that you're wearing it - it's simple, uncomplicated and does the job perfectly.

One good thing with extreme heat though, after the wash, this jersey is ready in an instant.
