Autumn is an underrated season for cycling—cooler temperatures, golden sunsets, and quieter bike paths make it the perfect time to hop on two (or three!) wheels. If you’ve been thinking about switching to a bike for daily transport, there’s no better time to start.
🚴 Why Autumn is the Best Season for Riding
🍂 Mild temperatures – No scorching summer heat or icy winter winds—just perfect riding weather. You can enjoy your ride without overheating or freezing.
🚦 Less traffic – With school holidays over, roads and bike paths become more predictable, making it easier for new riders to build confidence.
🏞️ Breathtaking scenery – Ride through stunning autumn leaves, crisp morning air, and golden afternoon light. It’s the best season to rediscover your city or neighborhood.
🍁 Tips for Safe & Comfortable Autumn Riding

🧥 Layer up – Start cool and remove layers as you warm up. A windproof jacket and moisture-wicking base layers work best. Check out our high-viz and padded vests here
🛞 Check your tires – Wet roads and fallen leaves can be slippery. Opt for tires with good grip and consider lowering tire pressure slightly for better traction.
🚲 Why Ride Year-Round?
Cycling isn’t just a fair-weather activity—studies show that riding regularly boosts physical and mental health, reduces stress, and saves money compared to driving. According to research from The British Medical Journal, commuters who cycle daily have a 41% lower risk of dying from all causes compared to non-cyclists.
Plus, cycling in autumn helps you build a habit that will keep you moving through winter and beyond. With the right gear and mindset, you can ride all year round and reap the benefits of an active lifestyle.
