Tour de Bristol

Your kit

Please make sure your bike is in good working order and perfect technical condition before you set off on your ride. Safety-approved cycling helmets are compulsory, we recommend cycle helmets complying with ANSI Z90/4 or SNELL standards. Cycling shoes, shorts and jerseys are also recommended.

Once again, we have partnered with Italian cycling company Alé to bring you a custom designed Tour de Bristol jersey that's stylish as well as comfortable. The jerseys will be made in a thin and breathable material with full length zip and back pockets. The new design for 2025 incorporates bold stripes in orange, pink and blue along with our signature Tour de Bristol green.

Please check the size guide, they are a very close fit and we recommend sizing up if your measurements are at the limit or between two sizes:

Size Guide: Chest measurements of 96cm/S, 100cm/M, 104cm/L, 108cm/XL, 112cm/XXL, 116cm/XXXL. Tolerance +/- 2cm.

These will be available to purchase when you sign up and via our online shop.
