Brrrr....

So what does it take to ride in the upper 30's low 40's? Here's what it takes:

-A cold-weather cap, none of this baclava/bank robber stuff.
-helmet (of course)
-eyewear, otherwise you can't open your eyes
-base layer
-wind-blocking base layer
-arm warmers
-leg warmers
-a long sleeve jersey
-another long sleeve something
-a wind vest
-wool socks
-toe covers
-shoe covers
-insulating gloves
-full finger gloves
last, but not least...
-a good snot shooting technique, and proper etiquette so that none of hits the guy behind you.
