This raises a tangential question: what clothing and tactics do y'all favor to deal with large changes in temperatures during a ride? In the high desert, 30* between early morning low and late afternoon high is routinely 30* and often 40*, with winds often changing from still to brisk and back.
Me: removable bits. Vests, jacket with zip off sleeves; ss jersey of mid weight (as opposed to lightweight) wool with wool arm warmers; 3 layers of thin wool; high-neck wool dickey; cut down wool scarf (Royal Stuart). And, otoh, that old Wooly warm, thick ragg jersey that Riv used to sell -- coarse knit so breathes well, but -- paradoxically -- keeps you warm even in at least a moderate breeze, but the same wind that doesn't bother you when it's cold cools you when it's considerably warmer, or perhaps it's just the natural temperature accommodation of wool. But I often choose the vest or zip-off-sleeve jacket instead because they are less bulky. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
