Cold weather riding

As long as you have shit to cut the wind, cold isn't that bad. 36º is about the coldest I ever rode... well... rode with any gumption (above 50mph)... Rainsuit with meshie suit under it and a sweatshirt... I was good. Leather perforated gloves were chilly pretty quick, but I could reach down and grab my header with my right hand (which hurt) and tuck my left hand up against the front jug on the Buell... that helped. Feet were a bit numb after 45 minutes or so... again, perforated boots with only a single pair of socks. Could have used a neck gaitor or something...

Come to think of it... fuck it riding in the cold sucks.
