You're going to get cold wrists and hands not to mention other parts if not protected by the wind . Do you have and oversized rainsuit combo pants and jacket? Use them as a weather wind breaker over the top of some cold weather wear.
Not letting the cold get to me!
So in the morning I'm taking off on my first longish ride =3 hours. Also I will be riding in lower temps than I have ever ridden in before. It may be as low as (37 degrees). I have only ridden in temps down to about 50 degrees before and some parts of my body got very cold then. One area was my wrists. With my arms stretched forward my wrists are exposed because I do not have winter riding gloves. I went to a local bike shop to look at some but at $65.00 I decided to pass.
So today I put on my thinking cap and came up with this simple solution for tomorrows ride.
I cut the toe out of an old pair of heavy socks and will wear them on my arms to help block some of the wind. Hey it's better than nothing....until I break down and get some longer gloves.
I'm sure I'm not the only one to have done this.
