Coldness leads to weakness, Weakness leads to gloves, gloves lead to your neck.. lol...
I would be living there right now if the mother of my son didn't like beatles the size of small chewawas.. i'll have to snap a picture of my get-up.. if you think my written description is funny, you should see me all dressed!!
anyway I know you were just having fun...

hahaha very good man... i know, like i said, i couldn't imagine riding in sleet. it was raining (heavy) the other night - it was 70+ degrees and i was shivering. then again, i couldn't imagine parking the bike for that long! so i'd be screwed if i lived up north

Damn weather here can't decide if it's winter or spring. Didn't ride into work this morning. But most likely will tomorrow.

My biggest problem is my winter gloves are fugly. So I stupidly say "oh it's only a 20 min ride. How cold can I get that fast?"...

I put in 150 miles today in 35* degrees. I just bought an insulated snowsuit and had to put it to the test. Hands and feet still got a bit cold, I'm now looking at heated grips. Would they be too much for my aged electrical system to handle? 88 Hurricane 600f

No problems.
I use on my old CBR600 heated grips(also muffs) and electric helmetvisor. Sometimes also need to use heated grips in my shoes and in helmet.
