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

Extra warm knee warmers?

Any recommendations for knee warmers that are thicker/warmer than most? Or do you double up?

I have some pearl izumis that are great until it's below 50F and then my knees will hurt. Need something for the rides in the 40s. I'm in FL so I don't need anything more than that.

I have some Castelli warmers which have a fleecy "Roubaix" layer inside. I think these are them. https://www.castelli-cycling.com/Pro...R/p/451704417A

If you like the Peal Izumis, why not get the thermal version? I have some older ones, and they have been great.

I got some Specialized knee warmers recently and they are conspicuously warmer than any other pair I've ever had.
