Hi all,
Im planning on joining a club at the end of the month for winter training, what do most of you wear for this type of training?

Raam

Bib tights, base layer, fleece lined jersey, buff, winter gloves, wool socks as the weather dictates.

Bib tights better than bib shorts with leg warmers?

Yes, in my experience. Sometimes you need leg warmers with your bib tights, though only in the dead of winter.

I guess it depends on the shorts and tights in question and the weather. You can get warmer shorts (Assos do a pair, I have em, they are warm) and they would be fine in winter with leg warmers. Some shorts are light so I wouldn't be using them in winter. I like to stay warm on winter spins so I've a load of kit. Fleece lined tights are good.

In my world there called "bandana's".

Nah, bandanas are square and flat. Buffs you can put your head through. What you really want is a neck-gaiter.
