Bonjour! (that's about the extent of my French

You probably have some things in your closet that will work on the bike, but cycling specific shorts are often necessary for comfort. You need padded gloves for sure, because these will protect your hands if you fall. The benefit of cycling tops is that the pockets are in the back, so whatever you carry (cell phone, snacks) won't get in your way, and the cut will usually be longer in the back so it doesn't ride up. They'll also usually be of a moisture wicking fabric, but a wool sweater or base layer works just as well.
I hope this helps. Let us know how it goes.
