Advice for Riding in Freezing Temperatures (Video)

#1 Unread post by Different Spokes TV »

So we Canadians envy all of you of the southern persuasion who get to jump on your bikes any time of year without a second thought. Even now in April it's still often below freezing on my morning commute so I thought I'd share some tips for staying warm (or at least for avoiding frostbite). Please let me know if you're riding in the cold and if you have any further advice to share. Thanks and enjoy:

I’ve made the mistake of not having warm enough heat on some late summer nights. The chill will get you and sap you good. Keep warm!

A used lid, a used pair of gloves, a used full leather suit, a used leather jacket, and a pair of used gloves, and a pair of used motorcycle racing boots will keep you warm.
