Hello,
I'm looking for some recommendations of what to wear while I'm biking -
expecially winter biking. Somewhere about November, it gets really cold
to bike in the morning. I end up putting on long johns under my pants
and then sometimes rain pants over that if it is really cold. Then, I
dawn a thin fleece, an old down jacket and put a rain coat over that.
Then, I put on a muff and ear warmers.
When I get out of the house, I'm usually a bit cold, but then after
riding for ten minutes I'm swealtering. I'd like to do some price
shopping for something better, so I was wondering if you had any ideas
on more ideal attire.
Thanks!
