Nice gear! I rode through the first couple weeks of December last year down to about mid 20's temp wise...it was cold but not horrible for short rides. The worst was the 1 hr. ride back to my parents to store my bike. My hands were freezing and I had to stop 3 or 4 times to let them warm up on the exhaust.:eek:With hand warmers and the right gear, I'd probably ride year round as long as there was no ice.
