For the experienced riders...how important are the shorts / jersey / shoes?? Is it worth spending $150 on a good pair of shorts, $100 on a proper riding jersey vs normal cotton/workout shirt, $300 on shoes??
If you're riding for any length of time, shorts are essential. I don't know if you need to spend $150 on them. 80 gets you decent pairs. Jerseys are nice, but you don't need them. Shoes will change the way you ride. You don't need to spend $300 on a pair, 100 will get you started and you can go up from there.
