warmth and speed
Hi there pirates!
I know this has been talked about before, but I wouldn't mind hearing peoples' thoughts on dressing for commuting in winter. specifically, I'm interested in longer distance or faster speeds in cold weather. I am pretty good at doing warm. but I want to see if I can't get some warm clothes that are also light enough and aerodynamic enough that I don't feel like I'm being slowed by the clothes I'm wearing.
here are my personal priorities:
I want to be able to ride in temps down to about 0 degrees F. I want stuff that fits well enough- I'm skinny, so most things that are long enough in the sleeve and down the back are way too loose. I would love what I wear to be breathable. and it would be swell if the whole package were fairly lightweight.
in that order!
what are your priorities? what are your methods, philosophies, properties?
I have no idea if more than a handful of people read this anymore, but you die hards are probably the ones whose opinions I'll value the most anyway.
