What works for me down into the 20'sF.: Head (any mixture of these): Wool skullcap Wool balaklava Wool cycling cap Helmet (great wind blocker for me). Sunglasses by day. WalMart display clear plastic glasses at night.
Upper body: Wool baselayer shirts. J&G breatheable rain jacket (acts good as windshell so wind wont cut thru wool layers) It is very vented. Not perfect but works for me on long rides. Without it I can see redness on trunk where wind penetrated the wool. So the jacket has been great for me. Hands: Any gloves that work. Doesn't have to be cycling specific. But rubber on fingers helps grip brake levers. Legs: Wool baselayers. Rivendell MUSA long pants. Feet: Leather Nike sneakers on flat pedals. Wool socks. I don't need two layers of socks until I get doen into the 20'sF. Caveat: After 30 miles in the cold my thighs and knees sometimes complain. But sub-20 mile commutes and other riding I'm fine with any combo of layers with the above. For distance riding I'd definitely use wool tights with Boure tights over top. Better for keeping legs warm so far on longer rides. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
