Its not my job to prove myself every time I state facts. Its YOUR job to look it up and find out what I say is true.

Re: Ready For Colder Riding
My brother, the one who spent his life in the Army, took the family to Disney World when they were in Fl for a vacation. I can't afford Disney World with the little SS payment I get a month. That is why I have to save up to take a trip once a year on the bike. I'm not sure how this ties into cold weather riding. I guess I could use that mask neck warmer on the trip thru a few of the states on the way to Fl.

Re: Ready For Colder Riding
let me know how well it does for the ears. I was looking at that exact one. but wasn't sure it would actually do much in the line of ears.. which is my biggest problem in the cold rides.

I just don't ride when it's cold.

Well maybe that is the thing to do but some days here it can be cool/cold in the mornings and warmer by mid day.
Ifn you want to get to the distination then you go ahead and brave a few cool/cold mornings.
Riding is my therapy. :big grin:

Re: Ready For Colder Riding
I agree with that PCC. Most times while eating lunch I lose most the gear because it has became that warm.

Re: Ready For Colder Riding
I've got 2 of those exact face masks. They are cheap. They do smell. I hang mine over a hanger in the laundry room to air out for about a week & it gets the smell out.

Re: Ready For Colder Riding
I don't ride cold either. That's why when it gets in the 20's & 30's I'm wearing my cold gear when I ride to stay nice, warm, & comfy. :thumbup:

Re: Ready For Colder Riding
You're right. Dec. 1st and it's supposed to be rainy and crappy here for the entire week. We need the rain bad though, so it's good.
