If you’re going on a cycling holiday with Skedaddle you’ll be pleased to know our friends at Endura are offering you a generous discount on their brand new cycling kit! We recommend that you bring a few options of each clothing type on holiday so you’ve always got spare kit. Most accommodation will have laundry facilities but we’ve also got some handy tips on cleaning your kit for multi day rides.
The most important thing is that you feel comfortable when you’re out riding and, whilst we don’t have any specialist kit requirements for each of our holidays, having the right kit for the right riding conditions can make a real difference to your days in the saddle.
Endura have been perfecting cycling apparel since 1993 and, with their roots in Scotland, they know a thing or two about how to design clothing for all kinds of riding in wild landscapes.
Over to the experts – here’s your quick kit guide from Endura…
Road cycling
Wicking, lightweight fabrics and Endura’s expertise in creating road cycle clothing will increase your smile to mile ratio – the number one metric for your road cycling holiday.
Women’s jerseys, shorts and gloves

Cool weather additions and accessories
When riding in cool weather, adding a few versatile accessories to your kit drawer can extend the usability of your favourite summer riding shorts and jersey. Endura recommends their women’s Pro SL PrimaLoft Gilet or men’s Pro SL PrimaLoft Gilet, combined with the men’s FS260-Pro Adrenaline Race Cape or women’s FS260-Pro Adrenaline Race Cape. Add women’s arm warmers, knee warmers and leg warmers or men’s arm warmers, knee warmers and leg warmers.
Complete the look with the Pro SL Helmet, women’s Coolmax Race Socks or men’s Coolmax Stripe Socks and glasses – check out the Shumba Glasses and Gabbro Glasses.
Mountain biking

Gravel Riding
Gravel is the hottest trend in cycling now, and on a Saddle Skedaddle gravel holiday you’ll be taking the path less travelled and doing it with fun as the top priority. The kit you wear might borrow from both sides of the gravel track – road and mountain bike kit will work well, but a bit like your gravel bike, you might want a few bits of kit that are tweaked for the purpose.
With 30 years’ experience in engineering game-changing cycling kit for on and off-road riders, Endura’s GV500 range deploys their favourite tricks, materials and technologies from both MTB and road, to create adventure specific jackets, short and jerseys that are ready to tackle every surface – just like you.
