Bee just do it!

Anything is better than nothing and you'll be proud too :-)

In Autumn/Winter golves, hat/hood, scarf are essential plus sun-glasses for eye protection including against wind/rain too, of course one outer layer water proof is needed too . . . Ah . . . back/front lights so that you stay legal and are seen by cars & people . . . I don't wear a helmet but you may choose to do so for safety . . . Just common sense really.

Enjoy it.
