Top Sports Apparel for Bike and Paddle Fans Choosing the right sports apparel enhances any biking or paddling outing. Here's what you need: Moisture-Wicking Socks Pick socks from materials like merino wool or synthetic blends. These ensure your feet stay dry, breathe well, and quick-dry to avoid blisters.
