We really need that dislike buttonI've probably peed on them a dozen times. Does that count?

Nope, just a personal preference.Heck yeah! So does that make Zwift a real joke?
Well, it is to people who ride real bikes and not virtual ones
Ohhhh...Thought it was some trendy inside forum joke I missed out on..
late to responses and everyone has good recoms??? Are you getting into downhill mtbing???
I know you may think I'm busting your balls, but if your funds are limited, this is very low on priority of winter riding items, imo.
Everyone will tell you what you NEED for winter mtbing but honestly you need to get out and find out what part of your body gets cold. Keeping yourself comfortable is important, for some their feet get cold and need better shoes, others may have a problem with their hands getting cold, some sweat a lot and need less core layers. Some parts of your body may require spending more money on then others, it will take you a winter to sort this stuff out. You don't need to go out and buy everything, over time you'll find out what you need.
you'll live.... "it'll put hair on your biscuits"No and HELL NO... probably low 30s is the coldest I plan on going out, as you said anything else is taking the fun out of it.
nope.Ohhhh...Thought it was some trendy inside forum joke I missed out on..
I usually forget to do this, but I throw the gloves on the dashboard and the shoes on the floor so they both get hit with the heater on the way to the trails.
you're going to have a relatively short winter, lock up this thread...No and HELL NO... probably low 30s is the coldest I plan on going out, as you said anything else is taking the fun out of it.
Rock hard frozen trails can be a blast to ride on. Once you figure out the gear it's really not bad to ride in.
Don't be surprised if you find yourself out there this winter.
This is big game changer for me, don't store your gloves and shoes outside or even the garage. If you start cold there to start it's hard to warm up. Also for me, I'll wiggle my fingers and toes throughout the ride, my fingers will eventually warm up but my toes rarely do, which is why I bought extreme winter hiking boots this year from Baffin
it was close last year, if only I was a few pounds lighter..Let's not forget the fabled "magic snow". I think I'll see a unicorn first...
It exists. Call it ice if it makes you feel better.Let's not forget the fabled "magic snow". I think I'll see a unicorn first...
