Default Canyon is becoming a bad influence on me

I haven't taken the bike out in windy sub 40 degree temps in years, yet here I am getting coffee this morning

He IS A BAD INFLUENCE!!!! If encouraging us to ride more/more often is a bad thing!!!! He is trying to lure me up there next fall to ride...I'd freeze my ninnies off up there... but I AM looking into it..

Nah he really isn't a bad influence, he's just pissing me off reminding me of the biker I USED to be!

the silk liners are like 12.00 bucks,,,they add more than you would think. I like the place I linked, it's here in town, I can try stuff on. Staff in the sales area are very helpful.

I have worn liners as well. Had no problems with cold hands a year ago. I bought some new winter gloves a size larger so the liners fit better. I do expect to be riding more to work since I'm suppose to move to a day shift.
