Yes. This is particularly bad if you have to stop for a maintenance problem…such as a flat…in a remote, dead cell zone area. Impossible to make the change with gloves on. Removing your gloves causes your hands/fingers to get so cold, quickly, that you can’t manipulate things to make the repair. Of course being in the cell dead zone…unable to call for a pickup…is another problem. All this has happened to me. Moral of the story: Stay in civilized areas during real cold rides.
