Tired already of dressing up like Michelin Man !!!
Anyone got any hints or tips from getting all the bike gear on, cover off the bike, ear plugs in, helmet on, struggling with wet hands and gloves that won't then slide on, etc .... only to get to work to do the reverse .... ??!!
Any ideas other than leave the bike and take the car that is ??

To save pulling the lining out of gloves with wet hands, use the free plastic gloves from petrol stations or if you're posh, customs officer or a surgeon, latex gloves.
Oh, and if you put waterproofs over your boots, put a carrier bag over the boot before pulling on the leg. Last edited by petevtwin650; 08-12-09 at 12:02 PM. |

Photo first though please !!! Pete's got the idea ....  Plowsie ... the worst ..... 35 mins (12 miles or so) ...... feels like an age to get ready for a short(ish) journey ... just long enough to get cold and wet !! Last edited by LK-SV; 08-12-09 at 12:07 PM. |

Step 1: Get yourself some leathers that could pass for a super hero outfit.
Step 2: Kit up in front of a mirror to some appropriate music like when Bat man gets tooled up. Makes the whole process a lot more satisfying =p ...or so I've been told

Re: Tired already of dressing up like Michelin Man !!!
So you could wear them but the thermals would add more to getting dressed I suppose. Ignore me
