So I've taken to riding into work when I can. 42 miles on the DC Beltway and I-95; massively unpleasant, but I've got an awesome 105 mile backroad route home that makes it worthwhile. Last Friday, yesterday and today so far. Yesterday morning it was in the high 40s, the high was supposed to be in the low 60s. Unfortunately it was windy as hell, and never really warmed up. Like a fool, I didn't think I'd need the plug-in stuff, so I went with leathers and layers. Needless to say, I was colder than I wanted to be.

So today it was 38 when I left the house. Jeans, t-shirt & short-sleeved polo, Gerbings overpants, jacket liner, and gloves, a River Road balaclava, 3/4 helmet, and my Fox Creek jacket.

I never turned the damn things on. Oh my God these things are warm. I probably could have clicked them on for a bit to warm my fingers up, but they really never got that cold.

Big thumbs up, I've just extended my riding season that much more.

I think mine are finally put away for the season. I can't ride my bike to work anyway, so after work or on the few and far between day off is the only time I'll get to ride for a while.
