That would be okay though, because as soon as they started ...flowing... they'd thaw themselves free again

And another thread derailed

If one of the Admins saw fit to move this to Idle Banter, I would not be upset!

Yup. 30 Miles on the motorway! With thermals and heated grips the only part that was cold were my toes.
Like you, Billy, I had to hot water the ignition barrel. Oh, and the choke. Beautiful morning in Kent though

yeah did my usual hour and a half commute.... was taking it easy after seeing the ice on the bike cover...

heated grips... ohhhh Im soooo glad I got them on the bike now..... which is fortunate since I left the gloves on the bike last night when I got back...

think some handlebar muffs for the windchill in order now...

Muffs + heated grips = very toasty warm hands. The trouble is, I find, that they make the switch gear hard to use, as well as looking really daft. When I was communting that distance in the winter, I used them occasionaly, but tended to find them more trouble than they were worth. That was without heated grips and with really thick winter gloves. With the grips you might find that you could use a thinner glove.

think the wind chill at the speeds I do on the m20/m25/a2 means I need thicker gloves even WITH the grips

I meant with the muffs to block the wind chill. You'd just have to try it and see. The only time that I've used both, my hands were really warm.
