Have been loving the night rides this Winter. For the most part I’ve got the clothing pretty well sorted, enough to keep warm riding in 0-10 degrees celcius without overheating. A thermal base layer, a super light merino wool short sleeve shirt, a long sleeved merino pullover and a wind shell works out to be just right. Knicks and riding shorts too of course, and wool socks.

The one thing that I haven’t sorted is my head – I don’t mind the cold air on my ears but the air pouring through the helmet vents onto my head is FREEZING my brain! Guess I will have to look into one of those thermal skull caps.

Great ride tonight though!
