Cold Weather Gear

Tonight’s ride was just over 29 miles, because I parked a bit further out than other folks. The distance was fine, but the cold (~50°F) was making my knees hurt. I think if I’m going to keep riding in this weather I’ll be needing some cold weather gear. It’s been suggested that I look at the Pearl Izumi AmFIB tights and either some shoe covers or cycling boots. With it getting dark so early I think a bright colored cycling vest (with lots of reflective bits) is also in order. Oh, and also some full finger or maybe lobster-type cycling gloves.

    PI amfib tights are GREAT! Yes, I have those too. :) I use toe covers and chem warmers for my feet. Someday I’ll need to invest in the total shoe cover. But for now, it works for me … although, warmers are disposable = waste of material and money.
