Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Warm enough for me here in northern England where at the moment the temperature is hovering between -5C and 5C. I suppose it depends where you live and what shoes/covers you have.

EDIT: review here pal. https://www.roadcyclinguk.com/bike-re...ated/2915.html

I'm gonna open a can of Whoop Ass on this thread in the next week or so -- I've got 8 separate shipments of goodies scheduled to arrive.

So FU Santa, I'll just buy my own stuff.

That's what I did...my family was annoyed I bought my own cycling stuff, and then couldn't figure out what I wanted.

DeFeet Blaze are warmer than the Woolie Boolie. They're very nice. I have some of each.

Bought a pro fit which entailed a new stem and some insets for my shoes. Also bought a Trek Fuel EX9, but, nobody here cares about that!

Finally found it... an insulated coffee mug that keeps the joe hot, won't spill, and fits in a bottle cage.
