I have heated grips, thermals from a couple of different places and a good neck warmer. Some days that isn't enough - then again you may not be wanting to ride in the snow - so my latest purchase was thicker skin. :lol:

Absolutely fantastic stuff! Pricey, but well worth it.

If you had ice on your roads you might change your mind. Ice and two wheels are a screwed combination and it really puckers my arsehole.

Oh, we get ice alright, but global warming will soon put a stop to that. ;)
