Too dark. Waiting for sunrise to ride. Need gilet and leg warmers because it’s 49F.

I don't have leg warmers. The last week or so has convinced me that I need leg warmers. :notamused:

This statement is straight out of the curmudgeon’s handbook isn’t it?

I recently added some 3/4 length bib knickers for Fall rides. We'll see if they supplant the leg warmers.

I went 30 miles yesterday, for the first time since pre-Covid times. I dubbed yesterday to be opening day, for that reason. I'm looking forward to a banner season.
You'll see. You'll all see.

I have some 3/4 thermal knickers from T6. They're nice, but I'm a little too big for 'em so they're not the most comfy for longer rides.

That and they're too warm on days like today, when it should climb up to 70° or so.

Just bought a pair of Aero Tech non-thermal tights with chamois. Fabric feels thin, and I felt “exposed” when trying them on. Gonna give them a go though when it cools down.

so, it appears to me you are saying you don't need a weatherman to know which way the wind blows. Which reminds me of this.

Who are these several people? Or is it undisclosed?

I have a bunch of different leg warmers from plain Lycra to heavier thermal ones. Most of them don't stay up, I guess my guads aren't massive enough.
Good thing about leg warmers is you can take them off if it warms up.
I have noticed wearing leg warmers helps keep my feet warmer, at least to a point.

Chance of rain for us tonight :bday:

Guess I'll put off washing the cars for a day or two..

Here you go Velo Vol
It just arrived in today's paper. I haven't read it yet but I'm sure it's full of valuable information. I bet your social media TwitterGram doesn't have this type of quality content.

I bought some lightweight knickers from Dicks Sporting Goods. They are pretty thin with no pad and easily roll up to put in a pocket or like today, I stuffed them inside a wide mouth water bottle about 15 miles from home. :thumb:
