    Perfect cross race kit. Short or long sleeve is the only question.

    Far too hot (for me at least) for this country unless it’s just above freezing and tipping it down at the same time.

    Okay.
    Then could you recommend a good corset?

    If they’re the same fleece lined ones as we have over here, then yes most likely too hot for all but the Dec/Jan races.

    depends if you have a fleecy one or not. a few seasons ago i had a ‘normal’ lycra one, but if cold wore it with a decent baselayer. I looked cool 😉 i darent go near it now though…

    Fleece lined? See I thought all the guys were just nails, now I understand.

    fleece lined! my opinion has sunk, I thought they wanted to be that cold so they had to belt round just to stay warm

    depends on the suit – mine is just straight lycra – not some fleece lined zoot allure.

    If it’s really cold I wear a base layer under it 😉

    Our kit is quite nice, but with one main flaw. Someone decided to put a white strip across the top of the a*se and down the legs, with the clubs name on.

    Within about 2 muddy cross rides, or wet road rides the kit is in a shocking state and impossible to get properly clean. I’ve only just invested in a skinsuit (lycra no fleece), but won’t be wearing it for cross.

    Try having white sleeves. Right shoulder and crook of the elbow is permanently grey from carrying.

    Same here, white arms and legs:

    Nothing a little spray before washing will cure though.

    Anyway back to the point, surely a cross skinsuit with out fleece is a time trial skinsuit 😕

    Yep ours have white arms too. I didn’t knwo you could get fleecey skinsuits until I read this thread!
