Title: This probably falls under Road craft
Post by: Stig / Major Tom on January 05, 2022, 12:19:20 PM

Hard to drink coffee through a balaclava!
Tips?
First cold ride of 2022...."feels like 29°F", before factoring in  20 mph head wind. With ground speed of 30mph.
Sitting here outside. wearing Gerbing heated glove liners yo stay warm.

Cheers to you, sir! (as I'm sitting on my couch in my living room, wearing flannel pajama pants, sweatshirt and sitting under a fleece blanket with my laptop and cup of coffee)..I see it is 7 F out with a wind chill well below zero. The thought of riding now...is...well....brrrrrrrrr....hope our weather doesn't head your way!

Yeah, went today because will be 12°F sunrise tomorrow.
I usually won't do recreational rides when it's in the teens.... too dangerous if you break down out there.
