Yeah, I started with very few cycling-specific items and used stuff I already owned, like work gloves, cotton socks, etc.

But it wasn’t long before I got sick of gently hand washing my only pair of cycling shorts every single night!

Shoes, socks, gloves and helmet are what I consider the essentials for a starting rider. The bibs and jersey's can be brought as you go along, you'll just end up washing your first jersey and bibs a lot. The arm and leg warmers can be brought when it starts to get cold. As for sun glasses, a cheap pair will work until you can get some that fit. I still don't have any since I have to wear prescription lenses. Remember that you don’t have to buy all of this at once.
