So did anyone else have to whack out the winter jacket today for the first time this year?
I thought it was a bit early to do so, but I'm glad I did. It was foggy as anything and poured down with rain.
Slipped twice on the way to work, think I need to start using my winter throttle hand!
Thermal liner has now been zipped into my jacket and I imagine it'll be staying there for the foreseeable :(

My next thought for investment...
I honestly thought the thread would be about this.

Back to reality. Hate winters.
I'm trying to stay in my leathers as long as possible, I have had a base layer and waterproof suit on at the same time though so maybe I should get the textiles out...

I've had the textiles out for a couple of weeks already. Not so much the heat as the humidity. or down right rain.
what are you all on about, its still 10c outside.. ok so its damp and wet but heyho it's the UK.
yes my bike will be tucked up very very soon as i don't do winter on the bike.
Has been around 6 deg last couple of days on my commute to work, although I leave home at 5:30 am so might be colder than most peoples morning ride.
Today was a balmy 12 degrees??

Should have been in Scotland, everyone had changed to the thick gloves and liners. We were bloody sweating at one point
